2008 Powditch Family Gathering
Well, I suppose that it wasn’t really a proper Powditch Family Gathering, at least not in the sense of the 2004 or 2006 gatherings, but on the other hand it was a coming together of those descended from the Cardiff (South Wales) branch of the family.
Margy Powditch (from Bucks) together with her daughter Drena, Drena’s daughter Jenna, and Margy’s niece, Penny, had all come down to Gower to stay in the area for a week’s holiday, and to come and see us (catch up on all the news, see the area etc).
Whilst they were staying locally (just down the road from us), Shirley (Ang’s sister) and Ang thought that it would be nice for a few other family members from South Wales to all meet up on Wednesday (9 September 2008), so it was all arranged by them, and on that day, our front room was graced with 12 Powditch’s or Powditch descendants!
Present were Margy Powditch (Hedgerley), Drena Welch (Farnham Royal), Jenna Powell (Farnham Royal), Penny King (Warboys), Pamela Powditch (Cardiff), Marjorie Powditch (Cardiff), Hazel Powditch (Kilgetty), Alan Powditch (Kilgetty), Shirley Smith (Gower), Carole Smith (Gower), Angela Algar (Gower) and John C Algar (Gower), and our two grandchildren joined the throng later in the afternoon, meeting all their extended family!
