Out of curiosity does anyone know what the "attraction" was in moving to Wigan around this time ? My tree has several Sollars who moved from the forest area to settle in Wigan.

Thank-you slow hands.I really appreciate your skill at finding the unfindable!! This information answers a lot of questions given that we now live in Wigan. It looks as though that when William died the youngest members of the family moved to Ince in Wigan.
I do have a lot of other information that might be useful for others. Thomas Morgan b.1852 the son of William Morgan b.1815 emigrated to New zealand not sure when but we are still in touch with relatives out there. Also in touch with Sarah Morgans relative b1867 (grandaughter of William Morgan 1815)

Baptist chapel , Commercial St Cinderford (1860 build) (reply)

allisonejarvis — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 22:42:59 +0000

Thanks for this. I have already read the article and found out that my ggg uncle nearly got killed while they were building it, also his brother built many houses around the cinderford area and lived in st. Annals road. Hope to visit Cinderford baptist to see the work of my ancestors. The only sad part is that my grandfather wanted to see the church and we never got round to taking him . Can't wait to lok round the gravestones

William Morgan builder of Baptist chapel cinderford

allisonejarvis — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 20:35:58 +0000

I am researching the ancesters of William Morgan born 1815 married Eliza and lived in cinderford . He had ten children, 2 of which Amos ,and Leonard helped him build the baptist chapel in cinderford.I am struggling to trace his daughters lines.Eliza b1855,Mary 1857, Emma,1859 and his son Alfred b1863.I have checked the cinderford marriage/ burial records but cannot trace what happened to them.
Can anyone give me an idea how I go about finding where they went? Also could you tell me whether the church is still in use? I do have other information on the family if anyone is also researching this line.
