Merry, I haven't a clue who the parents of Anne Evans are (nor of her sisters or half-sisters Susanna, Jemima and Mary and their nameless brother)!
All I know is that Sarah Powell (maiden name unknown, possibly Eason or Easton) and her husband Richard Powell died, Richard first, and that the estate passed to Anne Evans who married William Bassett.
The marriage I was given is probably correct because the documents I'm transcribing mentioned lots of property in the County of Brecon. (However, Richard Powell is also said to be "Richard Powell of Neath".)
By the time I have finished transcribing these documents, I will have spent 2 days on them, and I doubt I shall get any further!
I think my only option is to establish ownership of the lands etc before 1745 to see if this leads me to Sarah's father (assuming it was he who had them).
