Hello, and happy new year to you all!

I'd appreciate any help in finding the parents (or any family) of Ellen Williams.

Ellen was born abt. 1820 in Liverpool, Lancs. and married John Dickson (born abt. 1811 in Wigtownshire, Scotland) on the 22nd April 1841.

The only clue to anything I can see is that on the 1851 census, there is a man called Henry Powis (born abt. 1823 in Liverpool, Lancs) staying with them. He is listed as 'brother in law' only by 1861 he is widowed and remarried in '61 to Alice Manders.

He may be the brother-in-law to John Dickson, but I have his family fairly well traced, so I hoped that it was Ellen that the link concerned....needless to say, I've got lost and need some help!! So if anyone out there can give me hand, I'd really appreciate it!

Regards,
Ed.
