<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is brilliant, thank you</p>
<p>Do you have a URL for it?</p>
<p>The problem with trying to replicate your Google search is that yours is based on your search history and will bring up in prominence things like this, whilst mine is based on an entirely different search history and I cannot find this even drilling down a couple of pages</p>
<p>Best Regards<br />

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you Google as I did: children of william gough and elizabeth portrey (BHO British History on Line)</p>
<p>House of Lords Journal Volume 28: December 1755</p>
<p>(there is the actual pages) - been trying to find the actual page for a number) still looking.</p>
<p>This is how it comes up transcribed....</p>
<p>PRAYERS</p>
<p>Petition of Gough &amp; al. for a Bill to sell Portrey's Estate, referred to Judges</p>
<p>Upon reading the Petition of William Gough of Willsbury in the County of Gloucester Gentleman, and of Richard Gough his Eldest Son now called Richard Gough Awbrey, James Gough, William Gough, and John Gough, his Younger Sons by Catherine Gough his late Wife deceased (who was the Daughter of Christopher Portrey late of Yniskendin in the County of Brecon, deceased, and Sister of Richard Portrey the Eldest Son and Heir, and also Sister of Christopher Portrey and John Portrey the Younger Sons of the said Christopher Portrey her Father, all since deceased) and of William Lucas and Elizabeth Lucas his Wife, only Daughter of the said William Gough by the said Catherine Gough his Wife; and also of Matthew Pryce Esquire; praying Leave to bring in a Bill, for Sale or Mortgage of a competent Part of certain Estates, in the Counties of Brecon, Glamorgan, and Carmarthen, devised by the Will of Richard Portrey Esquire, deceased, for discharging of Debts and Encumbrances:</p>
<p>It is Ordered, That the Consideration of the said Petition  be, and is hereby, referred to Mr Justice Clive and Mr Justice Bathhurst; who are forthwith to summon all Parties concerned in the Bill; and, after hearing them, are to report to the House the State of the Case, with their Opinion thereupon, under their hands, and whether all Parties who may be concerned in the Consequences of the Bill have signed the Petition; and also that the Judges, having perused the Bill, do sign the same.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.ystradgynlais-history.co.uk/james-gough-aubrey.html">http://www.ystradgynlais-history.co.uk/james-gough-aubrey.html</a><br />
is our page for James Gough Aubrey, and it shows the memorial he put up.</p>
<p>Does the article/extract you quoted continue? I'd really like to know the whole story to this!</p>
<p>Lovely to see John's name there. There are certainly enough years where Catherine was still alive that John could have been born as the youngest (*surviving) son - 1724, 1726, 1727, 1729, 1730, 1731, even 1733. Charles is born and died 1732, so while he was probably the youngest son born, he clearly was not a surviving son.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some years ago I did some work on the Gough family of Ynyscedwyn. I thought there might be a relationship to my ancestor Thomas Morgan of Lydney born about 1640. In the event, I could find no relationship. I can send you a summary of what I found. This would best be done by e-mail but I cannot see a way of doing this since the little envelope does not appear next to your name.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are there any Chepstow records for 1721 or 1724 for a John or a Jane Gough, children of William and Catherine? They are mentioned on a plaque in Ystradgynlais church and Theophilus Jones thus lists them in the family tree (without dates) but I have been unable to locate them</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>May I ask why the search of the parish records on here for Chepstow does not bring back either of those records? </p>
<p>Would the source of those records also tell you whether there were a John and a Jane, children of William and Katherine? Theophilus Jones includes them, but I cannot find any evidence of them</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Thank you. That is very useful to know. Whilst William Gough is my immediate interest, I will need to branch out in the family later to understand who everyone is in the estate papers of the turn of the 18th century,</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Catherine Portrey was [eventual] heiress to the Ynyscedwyn estate in Ystradgynlais, in the Swansea Valley. She married William Gough, of Willsbury, Saint Briavels - quite how this came to be, I do not know. </p>
<p>Their SON William Gough, the one whose date of birth/baptism I was looking for became a Royal Navy officer, by 1758 captain of a ship of the line</p>
<p>I am researching the origins of the Gough family accession to Ynyscedwyn - by the marriage of William (snr) and Catherine it initially went to their eldest son Richard, who by 1745 is hanging out with Christopher Portrey in Wales, as his clear heir. </p>
<p>Eventually William Gough junior's sons would accede as squires of Ynyscedwyn, after the 2nd brother, James, had exercised power over the estate, whilst also being Rector. William Junior himself never had any connection as far I have yet seen (yet).</p>
<p>Regards<br />
Jon</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>?</p>
<p>As I have no idea of your research - and can see a tree on Ancestry - which gives Catherine PORTREY's place of birth as 1698 in Ynsycedwyn, Brecksonhire, Wales.</p>
<p>? Where did their marriage take place</p>
<p>? What occupation was Wiliam GOUGH </p>
<p><br />
PORTREY isn't a name (or variations of - on the Forest of Dean Records) - on Ancestry the surname appears to be in Wales.</p>
<p>I would be quite happy with the baptisms in Chepstow -</p>

<p>The names, dates and parents match and I see that Saint Briavels and Chepstow are only 8 miles apart, which I would never have known</p>
