Could anyone find Lawrence Shell(Shail) and his wife Mary (Perriman) on any of the Gloucestershire census please? Mary was born approx 1800/1810 and was married to Lawrence in 1825. Am trying to find where she was born.
cheers

In relation to Lawrence and Mary (Perriman) SHELL, I have been unable to find a baptism for Lawrence including having looked at name variations like SHAIL, SHAILE, SHILL etc.
My problem is as follows. Mary's illegimate daughter Mercy Perriman noted her father as Henry PERRIMAN when she married the first time to Thomas GAY. (I have not be able to find a Henry PERRIMAN and suspect it may ahve been a name to put on the certificate and nothing else. When Mercy married a second time, she noted her father to be John SHELL a labourer. Again I have not been able to find at all. Her mother Mary married Lawrence SHELL after Mary's birth and they had several children. They only record I can find for Mary's daeth is one Mary SHELL who died in 1878 in Yate Union Workhouse. Stated as the widow of John SHELL.
I am trying to clarify whether all these Marys are the same person. I have tracked her in all appropriate census returns but does anyone have any record of John SHELL or Henry PERRIMAN or possibly tell me how I might gain access to Yate Union Workhouse records to see if they might enlighten me. I am in NZ so my research is online or by post. I would also be interested in any record of Lawrence other than his marriage record with Mary PERRIMAN or census returns as I have these.
I hope I have been sufficiently explicit, thorough and coherent here

PS I should also say that I have the burial record for Lawrence but not death certificate
