Notes

  • "Elizabeth POTT was born in Llangirrig, Montgomeryshire, Wales. They resided in the Township of Dithenith in the Parish of Llandinam. In 1668, William Bound and his wife were presented at the Great Sessions at Poole, charged with absenting thems elves from attendance upon divine worship in their Poole Church. From this it appears probable that they had united with the Friends or Quakers who were then undergoing severe persecution, at the instigation of the Established Church. William Bound died about 1678 or 79. His will dated 24 April 1678, and proven 6 March 16 79, is on file in the Consistory Court at Bangor, North Wales." --Historical Collections RELATING TO The Potts Family in Great Britain and America, INCLUDING CONTRIBUTIONS BY THE LATE WILLIAM JOHN POTTS, COMPILED BY Thomas Maxwell Potts, Author of The Carter Family, Our Family Ancestors, etc., Cannonsburg, Pa.
