Lyn, As promised here are the details I have on the Roch family of Butter , although I am afraid it is not very much. From the 1841 Census ================= Butterhill George Roch aged 45, Independant, born Pembrokeshire Martha Roch, aged 25, NOT born Pembrokeshire William Roch, aged 40, Clergyman, born Pembrokeshire From the 1786 Land Tax Returns - St. Ishmaels ======================== Thomas Roch, esq., Owner and Occupier of Butterhill. Valued at £2. 10. 0d. Doctor George Roch, Owner and Occupier of Priests & Follards(?). Valued at £0.15.7 1/2d Deerland (neighbouring Butterhill).
