I don't know. My ancestor Robert Wells married Elizabeth Powley in Morland in 1609. Robert was born at Shap so I don't know whether her family was from Morland or Shap. Obviously, I know very little about the Powley family. John B.

I'm continuing to research the Wells, Powley and Rigg families of Shap and Morland in Westmorland from 1650 and earlier. I will be happy to share any information I have found. Cheers! John B.
