I believe that a Wastel Brisco married the daughter of John Hobday Lade of Broughton, Kent, by his wife Eliza, who he had married on the 2nd January 1791, she being the daughter of David Evors, her mother was a daughter of Sir John Pryce 5th Bt. of Newtown Hall, (by his first wife, Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Thomas Powell Bt.).

Sir John Pryce 5th Bt. had three wives and he was the nephew of my 7th grandfather Edward Pryce, the son of Sir Matthew Pryce 2nd. Bt. Miss Sarah Brisco,who died on the 20th of January 1901, restored the Pryce Mausoleum at St.Maty's Old Church in Newtown, Montgomeryshire.
