Hello thank you for your reply. My Henry Fowell was born in Cheadle in 1828. his parents were John Fowell & Hannah Rushton. i am also looking for the family of his brother Thomas Fowell born in 1817 in Cheadle. he married Martha Dawson. in 1839 in Cheadle. Henry and Thomas are the brothers of my 3xgreat grandfather William Fowell who came to West bromwich in the 1840's. thank you.
