Thankyou so much for your swift info.I have looked into the DOWDESWELL'S
of Standish,if the burial is correct it cannot be my MARY as she died in Childbirth 3 June,1843 at Ablington,Gloucestershire,she was by then married to WILLIAM ORGAN and had three daughters.I have found a family from Abbots Bromley,have yet to search this.Thankyou again,Regards Mary Dennis
That is disappointing.
Good luck in Abbots Bromley.

Yes thankyou this is my family,WILLIAM ORGAN married his widowed neighbour and went off to Australia with her four children and his three.They settled and I have the very extensive Family Tree sent by a lady in Queensland. My Mary is the one I cannot find prior to 1811.It is very frustrating but I shall keep looking.Her son John is the person I am descended from he was always known as JOHN DOWDESWELL.
Thankyou again.taurus
