Hmmmm. The mystery deepens.  MY George's parents were Thomas (born 1801 Cerne Abbas) and Mary, nee Brownsey.

In that case, the Albert Terrell who is Emma Castle's brother is defintely not the same Albert who's father was William Terrell, a gas purifier.  They might be related though.
George Terrell, born 1840 at Cerne Abbas was a tanner, sometimes described as a skin dresser.

This is definitely 'my' William Langham.  I can trace him until March 1871 when he appeared in court, at Chelmsford,  for beating his wife, Annie.   He had previously served 4 months hard labour for the same offence.   
At that hearing, it was stated that the couple had agreed to separate.  After that, there is no sign of William.

Just to recap, he was born 1828/1829 at Romford to Elizabeth and Lewis Langham (a baker/corn merchant).  William was a carpenter with the merchant  navy out of Woolwich Arsenal.   After his mother's death, he seems to have taken to drink - hence the court appearances.

Where on earth did he go to?    I am pretty convinced that he has nothing to do with the William Langham of a similar age in Leicester.

But the Albert Terrell who is living with his sister, Emma Castle, in the 1901 census  (and who happens to be my grandfather's brother) is a printer - not a purifier.   I suppose he could have changed jobs.

Hi Frank
Did you solve the mystery of Albert Terrell?
My grandfather, William Terrell, had a brother, Albert, who was born in Bermondsey in 1881.
There were at least eight children and their parents were George and Harriet.
George had been born in Cerne Abbas, Dorset  in about 1840.
I have more information and would be very happy to share it.

Twinkle, I think you and I might be distantly related.
My grandfather was William Terrell, born 1875 in Bermondsey.
His father was George Terrell who was a skin dresser in the tanning trade.  He had been born in Cerne Abbas, Dorset in about 1840.  His parents were Thomas and Mary (nee Brownsey) who moved to Bermondsey between 1848 & 1850, presumably looking for work.

My grandfather was one of eight children.  I have all their names, dates etc.
If you are interested, please get in touch.  I should love to hear from you and see where you fit into the story.
