Hello.
I am looking for details of Sophia Counsell death or burial.
The details I do know are as follows.

Born Sophia Wild in Weston Under Penyard 1795.
Married John Counsell in 1816.
Their children, John Webb Francis Counsell 1816.
Elizabeth, Edwin & Sophia about 1821.
Henry about 1822 who died 1825.
In the 1841 census, John senior is living in Ross on Wye with his 4 children.
But no sign of his wife Sophia.
I have guessed she has died between 1822 & 1841 but have found no reference any where.
If anyone can help or advise me I would be very grateful. This is the last bit of information for that generation that would complete a good picture for me.

Regards Rob
