i am trying to find information about the 'Parry' family (past and present) all who hail from Tintern in Chepstow.
my grandmother was Ivy Littlewood (nee Parry) her father (my Gt x2) was William Parry (who was his wife?) his father (my Gt x 3) was James, my grandmother had a brother called Gilbert (wife Mavis or Mabel) who worked as a porter for many years in the two local hospitals, also a sister called Daisy (husband Charlie) who lived in Channel View in her later years. Although Tintern is a small township i seem to be drawing a lot of blanks, can anyone help me sort out my problem, please. thanks

For reference - this looks like the family in 1901. Sarah Moulton is mother in law to James Parry.

oh my god! you are ALL amazing people, thank you, thank you. no wonder i was hitting brick walls, you have put in names i've never heard of (Moulton, Richardson) this side of the family has always been a mystery, i've just found out today that there was a Winifred Parry who was killed in her 20's (no dates yet) and that Daisy's middle name was after her. thanks to All for your help without you i'd still be banging my head, you have took me further in one night than i have got in a week! my inexperience shows i'm afraid, if you uncover anything else i'm eager to hear. thank you all again
