| - Notes: William Chown, second son of Bathsheba and John, moved to Wales in 1850. As
a stonemason, William joined a large band of artisans from the West of England engaged in the development of Cardiff as a seaport and the building of the dockyards. He went back to Exminster in 1852 to marry Sally Underhill and returned to Cardiff where their five boys and three girls were born. The eldest son Walter born 1855 and his wife Susan had three children and following the early death of Walter's sister Laura, he raised her three children as well. Walter was also a stonemason and there were several other Chowns listed under the same trade. Walter's eldest child Laura born 1892 and named for her aunt, married Thomas Daniel HILL. William Chown 1826 married Sally UNDERHILL in 1852 and this branch moved to Cardiff in Wales. From 1871 to 1890 they lived at 4 Elm Street, Routh where William was a grocer. |
