Birthplace of James RUSSELL ca 1797
« on: Wednesday 10 March 10 06:40 GMT (UK) »
James Russell married Mary Ann COLLINS on 5 March 1821 at Lakenham, Norfolk.   Mary was born there on 15 July 1792 - parents William Collins and Elizabeth Sayer.   I'm having great difficulty finding the birthplace of James Russell.   He and Mary Ann were listed in the 1841 UK Census at Broadway, Hammersmith, Middlesex as 'not born in the county'.   Any help would be gratefully appreciated.   They both died before the 1851 Census was taken - ie Mary Ann in 1842 and James in 1843

did they have any children where names might have been passed on?

there are 2 james Russells on the family record pilot site - one in Lincoln 1799 and one in Whitwell, Hampshire 1795, both giving parents names.

as per PM from mrussell

Source of death of James Russell was the burial register of St Paul, Hammersmith (Ref:  DD/746/22)
7 October 1843 aged 46.
With thanks for your response.


Thank you so probably not that one in Norfolk then, though even informants on death can get it 3 years wrong.
