Hewlesfield/Lydney and Burton is probably Purton on the other side of the Severn Estuary

so Slimbridge is not far from Purton hence the "tree" that you mention has possibilities.

Sorry to keep inundating the forum. I used to have more information on John Powell and Elizabeth Whites parents. The Powell side I had less information on, but Elizabeth White's Parents I had at one point as John White and Elizabeth Bendal. Anyone up for helping me continue to go back on the Powell/White lineages? You all have been so helpful and I'd really like to donate to the site at some point. The following information is information I had regarding John Powell and Elizbeth White's parents...it may/may not be accurate so we'll see what you all can find.


John Powell born in Crow Hill, Herefordshire
Elizabeth White (1791 birth?)


Parents of Elizabeth?:
John White (1739-1843, these dates seem unlikely? Slimbridge, which I don't believe is in the Forest)
Elizabeth Bendal (1746-1820 also Slimbridge)

I also had surnames Bendal and Workman pop up. I BELIEVE someone from this site provided me with the information a few years back, but when I look back at my postings I can't find any record of it
