The Common Room / Re: Pallen, somewhere in NE England/Canada

Ages ago Annie asked about the parents of Ann Mundell (b 1802) who married Peter Pallen. Her parents were James Mundell (1771-1823) and Jane Sweatman.  James' parents were John Mundell (b1735) and Jenny Crew (1737-1812).

This is so fascinating to find all these different branches and relations! I presume you are from the Morrow family?  I can answer the point about Norham and Durham.  We live in Northumberland - purely my chance not because of family - and Norham is a small village about 7 miles from Berwick upon Tweed.  In the 12thC the Prince Bishops of Durham built a castle there and so it became almost an 'island' of County Durham, being surrounded on 3 sides by Northumberland and on one side by Scotland. I will see if I can search a marriage through the Scottish records but it would be really interesting to see the two wills - could you give me a suggestion as to where to find them? Any more details on the family would be really interesting to know - I may go and have a look around the churchyard at Norham - they may not have been married there but perhaps some of the family may have been buried there.

Its come from loads of sources like Ancestry and Find my past.  Its like a jigsaw but I think the links tie up.

Peter Pallen's wife Ann was the daughter of James and Jane Mundell, who lived in Newchurch, Isle of Wight.  She was born in 1802 or near to that date as she was christened on 10 Jan 1802.  She had 5 other brothers and sisters - Emma, James, Betsey, Jane and Elizabeth. 
Ann was married on 11 November 1822 in Camden and died on 10th June 1839 in Somers Town.

Are you on Ancestry? If you are I can link our trees. Otherwise I'll get the details I have on Ann which is not a lot but you can obviously have what I know. or do you have an email address - would that be easier?

I am descended from Frederick Randall Pallen and then through Henry Pallen.

I too have Peter Pallen as a direct ancestor - he is my great, great, great grandfather.  I have followed up some of William (his father's) family in Canada but do not know why Peter stayed in London - nor why he was omitted from his uncle's will.  I would love to be in touch with anyone who is also related.
