Hello Murray
I usually help out here with the Huguenot look ups but don't know how much info you already have on them from the French churches etc?
The family were from Nimes, and appear to be part of the wave of refugees that came to England in the lull between the Austrian War of Succesion and the Seven Years War, 1748-57, a period which saw the French troops at home and persecuting the Protestants. In London they were received by Pastor Jacob Bourdillon into his Artillery church in Spitalfields, and on Bourdillon's death in the late 1780's and the Artillery's closure, they became part of the larger Threadneedle Street congregation. They are well represented in the records of the French Hospital right up to the 20th century.
There is an interesting site here with some info on them:

To add to this I have found a little further info on your ancestor Paul Toureille, Jean's father.
He was one of a band of 115 émigrants who left France first for Lausanne, in modern Switzerland, and then moved on again on June 26, 1752, to Rotterdam, moving again in September of that year to the Huguenot community in Dublin.
They were led in this exodus by Pastor François Coste, who was one of Antoine Court's 'Desert Church' deputies, clandestine preachers operating illegally in France, risking execution, codenamed 'Juston'. Five letters of Coste, written at various steps on this journey recount their various adventures on the trip to Rotterdam, and the struggle to survive.
In addition this group were also discussed in Paul Rabaut's biography, as part of his letters to Pastor Antoine Court (1739-1755), where Paul Toureille is specifically mentioned by name (page 215 of modern printing) described as a Silk Weaver of Nimes, who greatly angered the Marshall of that city when he fled, as he did so leaving great debts behind him.
Once in Dublin Paul's wife and children, (who fled France the year after him, see here: http://www.tomosborn.f2s.com/notes/notes_tourell_app_2.html) later joined him.
The Toureilles and some others then. some time later, moved on again, from Dublin to the Huguenot community in London, where as stated above they were received by Bourdillon in Spitalfields.

I am new to Rootschat having stumbled across this site today, I am a decendent of a James Henry Tourell and what I have is he was born 05/07/1854 in Middlesex England. He migrated to NZ at the age of one, his wife Mary Doyle was from Ireland.
He died in Dunedin NZ on 05/01/1926.
I have an interest in knowing a bit more as I will be in France next week and will be travelling thru Nimes,this city popped up on a google search for the Tourelle name. The family has known of a Huguenot connection but not much eles. Of interest is that my grandfather fought in France in 1917-1919. He was in the NZ Expeditionary Force and survived the war.
I know this is an old thread but I hope someone may have some additional info.
Cheers

I just came across this thread and have the majority of records you are after if you haven't got them all yet. This is a line I have been concentrating on and have found so many of the documents have been translated from the original French which has been making the fact checking doubly difficult!!
My line is similar to many of you who have replied.
Antoinette Leonard 1715- 7th great-grandmother
Jean Toureill 1739-1791 - 6th great- grandfather
Jean Pierre "John Peter" Tourell "Toureille" 1767-1823 - 5th great-grandfather
James William Tourelle 1805-1854 - 4th great-grandfather
Ellen Elizabeth Tourelle 1829-1910 - 3rd great-grandfather
Henry "Harry" Packwood 1866-1942 -2nd great-grandfather
Francis "Frank" Eric Packwood 1894-1966 - great-grandfather
Ian Crosleigh Packwood 1930-2021 - grandfather
Janet Vivienne Packwood 1956- mother
Luella Ruth Bartlett (Me :))
I would love to make contact with anyone who wants to, this line is special to me, it was something my grandfather was researching before he died. And thank you for all the information on here, it has filled in some gaps, given me extra stories and more research material.
