Found a newspaper clipping from the Daily Pantagraph, Bloomington, IL, USA dated 27 July 1976.
Open House to Honor Alfred Povalls
Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Povall of 1212 N. Livingston will celebrate their golden wedding anniversary with an open house from 2 to 5 P.M. Sunday, August 8, at their home.
Hosting the event will be their daughters, Mrs. Betty Barber of Hope, AR; Mrs. Pat Ryan of Lafayette, IN; Mrs. Sheila Kimmey of Morton, IL. The couple requests no gifts and no formal invitations have been sent.
The former Mary Alice Jackson and Alfred Povall were married 11 August, 1926, at St. Oswald's Church in Cheshire, England. They came to the United States in 1951, the year of their 25th wedding anniversary. The couple has 12 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchidren.

If anyone recognizes this family, would appreciate knowing how they fit.

Hi Gwen,
Alfred doesn`t seem to be one of the Wirral Povalls. According to the website www.cheshirebmd.org.uk, he was born in Knutsford, Cheshire in 1903.
Best Regards
Gaynor

Alfred and Mary Povall were my great-grandparents originally from England. Pat Ryan is my grandmother. What information on the Povall's are you looking for?

Do you know your great-grandfather's father, grandfather, etc. My line is descended from Joseph Povall and his wife Nancy Ann Langley and their first son Charles. Wonder if you are descended from one of Charles' brothers.

I am descended from Joseph and Ann's son James. Do you have any information on their ancestors?

Alfred Povall was my Great Grandfather. His daughter Betty was my grandmother. She passed away yesterday. I searched her name and found this. Made me smile.
