This family are an other that link to the Rogers the printer and the Harrisons of Brymbo.
Any contributions more than welome.
Harriet Ann Pierce married John Evan Harrison.
Harriet was the daughter of Thomas Pierce .
Thomas was born possibly in the Ruthin area, all we have from the census is ` Vale of Clwyd`
Thomas’s parents were Edward and Ellinor/Ellen Pierce.

The place of birth for all these is just Wrexham, but I think that’s wrong.
I think Ellen 76 is Thomas’s mother

Although places of birth are different for Thomas and Anne, I think it’s the right family as Ellen and Edward Pierce were witnesses at Harriet Anne`s marriage, her siblings?.
Moss Row was next to the New Inn, Moss, this could be the New Inn cottage still standing near where the old chapel was.
The next named place is the Bridge Inn, which was where the Railway Bridge over the Moss Road was; the walls are still there just before the Golf club house.
This seems to be Thomas in 1861

Can`t seem to trace them. If they were in the Leeswood area, then parts of 1841 are missing.
The marriage of Edward and Elinor was before 1837 so is very difficult to trace.
