Notes for Anne Catherine Powys
Her baptism transcription:
First name(s) ANNA CATHERINA
Last name POWIS
Gender Female
Birth year 1772
Birth date -
Baptism year 1772
Baptism date 02 Jan 1772
Place ASTBURY
Father's first name(s) Thomas Gelf
Father's last name Powis
Mother's first name(s) Lucy
Mother's last name Ann
County Cheshire
Country England
Record set Cheshire Diocese of Chester bishop's transcripts baptisms 1576-1906
The register itself includes that the family were “of Moreton”, Astbury being the local parish to this. Also the date could be ’12’ not ’02’; or it could be “Jan: 2”. Finally the mother’s first names were “Lucy Ann” not “Lucy” with a surname of “Ann”, though a second transcription on FindMYPast has this right.

On FreeBMD her death name is entered as ‘Fielding’; they did not show a scan for her to check and/or correct.

On 3 Sep 2016 Michael Andrews-Reading has passed on this morsel:
“I found the 1787 wedding at St Marylebone of the Revd George Boldero of Norfolk and Christian Sheldrake; the witnesses are "T.J. Powys" and "Anna Catherine Powys" (his daughter?)”
She would have been 16 then. I wonder if this was a part of a marketing strategy by her parents to get her married off well, which they achieved four years later.
