Rev Joseph Stringer

and wife Grace Newell of Presteigne

Rev Joseph Stringer, 22/05/1851 – 29/12/1935.

Marked in Minutes as a  W….Wesleyan. Chair of Whitby and Darlington District. I have full record of stations etc.

Married (see below) Grace Newell (b 1848) of Presteigne, daughter of the local Ironmonger.

In a history book I have seen a picture of a collecting box kept on the shop counter “for the extinguishing of the debt of Presteigne Primitive Chapel”

So it seems we have a Wesleyan marrying a Primitive.

See article on this website for Rev John Silas Brown  who in 1849 married a Grace Bebb Newell (b1811) from Presteigne.
