Sophia Ann Baldwin

My great grandmother Sophia Ann Baldwin born 1872 Ruardean Hill to
Benjamin Baldwin 1833 and Mary Ann Griffiths.

Photo was taken in 1897 when my grandmother Minnie Sophia Stanford was
christened. Sophia Ann's grandparents were William Baldwin and Hannah Smart.

Benjamin and Mary moved between the Forest of Dean and Ruabon North Wales where
Benjamin died 27th December 1887. From 1881 Benjamin and his family lived in Ruabon
and never returned to the Forest. Sophia Ann died in Ireland in service in Meath 1907.
