My Surnames in Essex

[rsel]

Hi Fedelmar,
    I have just come across your post, as i have just found a connection to the Playl/Playe family in my own tree. They are not from Stebbing though but from Writtle (which is not about 12 miles away).
    My connection is through my great (x3) grandmother Louisa Playl, who was born in approx 1828 in Writtle. I know from her marriage certificate in 1852 to George Camp, that her father was a John Playl, who was a labourer, and that one of the witnesses was a Sarah Playl (who i am assuming was a sister). I have not been able to positively locate Louisa, John or Sarah on the 1841 or 1851 census, but i do have a possible family in 1851 of an Elizabeth with 2 daughters Louisa & Sarah living in Ingatestone, all from Writtle but with Louisa's birth out by 3 years.
    Have you come across any of this family in your research, even though it is slightly outside your area ?

Thanks

Richard

My Sorrells lived around Boreham in Essex.  My husbands Great Grandfather George Sorrell went to sea in 1860 aged 16 and sailed all over the world.  I have a book written by him with accounts of the ships he sailed on.  He spent some time in Australia  He married twice first to Grace Willis and then Maraget Waring. He had 3 children with Grace . Please  let me know if there maybe some connection.

Best Regards

Hi I am unsure why your research was sent onto me but I have attached above a web link that could offer some insight into a quite famous early Governor in Australia.

Hi Neil

My message did vanish whilst I was typing it, took me a while to get it back, who knows what happens to these things !!  Thanks for that info though  very interesting,  our Sorrells have two Rs and two Ls and after being sailors became Correspondence Clerks not Goveners.  The other side of the family were fismongers or builders, nothing exciting.

Thanks for your reply anyway.

I have a Hannah Plail / Playle born about 1806, according to various census returns in Asheldam, Essex.

Has anyone got any links to this Playle? I did a search for her a couple of years back in the parish registers for Asheldam, but could not find her - I have not yet searched the surrounding villages though.

Hannah married William Whent on 4th October 1829.
