Edward Eddowes

• Birth Notes

  All childrens baptism records show Edward was a Taylor and lived at Bersham, Wrexham.
  
  Can't find a marriage record (to Mary) but assumed to be born about 1720 as first child born 1794.  This fits perfectlyu with death in 1952, aged 82.

  A quote from Archive.org:  "The district of Minera, in the carboniferous limestone, about 5 m. West is remarkably rich in lead, zinc, copper, iron ores, besides being placed at the outcrop of the coal-measures and in the immediate neighbourhood of lime and slate quarries. 1 m. rt. of road to Minera and Ruthin is Brymbo Hall, an old mansion, said to have been designed by Inigo Jones, and formerly inhabited by an ironmaster of the name of Wilkinson, who had large works at Bersham, and cast here the ironwork of Southwark Bridge. On 1. is BlasBower the seat of the Fitzhugh family. Hence the road continues to Llandegla and Ruthin (Rte. 11). The road to Llandegla runs up a narrow gorge between limestone cliffs. It is a very pretty walk from Wrexham, through Bersham , 1 m., skirting Bias Bower estate, to Adwyrelawdd, 3 m."
