I have James Preece 1833-1894 as the brother of Edward Preece 1839-1904
who is my Great Grandfather. Their father was Robert Preece 1782-1870
who came from Upton Bishop, Herefordshire. Robert married Susannah Bailey
(died 1878) in 1831 at Ruardean. Their third child was Ruth 1844-1922 who married
Job Taylor 1840-1907.

There were quite a few Preeces in the Upton Bishop area but so far I have been unable to link them.

Thank you all for you posts.

Peter Preece
