This post is so interesting as I too am searching for details on the surman side of my family and have been trying to trace information on Helena Surman daughter of Josiah. She is my great grandmother and I’m struggling to find some missing information. If anyone has any family connections on the Surman family I would love to know. We were told that Helena had an illegitimate child When she was 16. There are no hospital records of this in Jersey but I’m wondering now if she was in India at the time?
