PM from Glenn:

Yes i believe this to be correct.It is her farther whom i`m trying to trace.

Yes, I realise that, Glenn, but sometimes it helps to look at other members of the family.

If Mary Ann Lee is Charlotte's mother, she must have only been 15/16 when she was born, so very young to have married - not impossible then - and she is shown just as Mary in the marriage index.

Hi Glenn
I thought from previous research that the George in Jersey was in fact called Dunell and not Durrell.
It's on one of your many previous threads about George.

Dear all,
I know this is a pain but i am still looking for my George Durrell,a real big mistery for me this one. As mentioned before the George Durrell who died in 1865 is deffinatley the wrong one, infact this George lived or was staying at 10 Smiths View Southsea with his wife or partner Harriet.
I know there is another George Durrell buried at Shedfield not far from Droxford,and it appears he is not listed anywhere,but the church as a record of his burial, can you kindly help me with this one.
In anticipation,
Glenn

Dear all on genes,still looking for the elusive George Durrell.The George Durrell who died in 1865 is the wrong one,but we believe he is a realative.
I have also been told that a former burial site in Mile End, was in fact a private one, run by trustees, where some Durrells are believed to have been laid.This site is in Portsmouth.It looks like,i have to travel on a different road,the nearest possible match, could be the George buried in Edmonton,can you help with this.

Glenn,
In the national archives, there is a record of the sale of the Lennox Arms from Tamplin Breweries to Friary. If you believe the Owen link, perhaps this record mentions your Burrell's too?
