Oswestry, Shropshire, England
Notes:
                   RESEARCH NOTES:
    Hannah was chr as dau of Thomas Jones and Mary.  However, there were at least three families of Thomas Jones's, with mothers named Mary. Thomas Jones md Mary Rogers 9 July 1712 in Oswestry Shrops.  Another (?) Thomas Jones md Mary Howell 21 July 1719 in Bromfield, Shrops, and another Thomas Jones md Mary Farmer,19 June 1717 in Ludlow, Shrops.  Hannah's residence at time of birth is given as Willow Street.  The only other chr with that residence is for Elizabeth, chr 16 Dec 1722.  There are six chr from 1716 to 1725 with residence of Llanforda (or Llanvorda).  There are then six other chr with no residence, or different than above which make it very difficult to put these into a definite family grouping.  However, all temple work has been done, and all these children have been sealed to their parents, the only relevant question remaining is which Mary is the mother of Hannah??

--Early family records gave Richard's birthplace as Osuelra, Wales, England.
This caused some confusion, but Oswestry is right near the Welsh/English
border and seems to be the proper location.  Checks were made in the
Oswaldtwhistle P.R., just north of Bury, but nothing was found.  The early
records also only gave one child, Alice.
