James (ca 1797-1843) and Mary Ann RUSSELL (ca 1791-1842) COMPLETED

I am DESPERATELY trying to find out the births and marriage details of James and Mary Ann Russell.
James Russell appears in the 1831 Heads of Households Census living at King Street, Hammersmith.   He was described as a tallow chandler or grocer and the address given was Broadway.
In the 1841 UK Census (Broadway, Hammersmith, Middlesex) James and Mary were listed as not born in the county.
The Burial Register of St Paul, Hammersmith lists Mary Ann Russell, aged 51 years, 13 November 1842 and James Russell, aged 46, 7 October 1843.   (Ref: DD/746/61 pages 6 and 22).
Their children - baptised at St Paul, Hammersmith were:
James - 6 April 1823
John Richard - 3 July 1825
William Frederick - 3 April 1828
Thomas Henry - 25 December 1830
Richard - 29 December.
I would be grateful to hear from anyone who may be researching the Russell family or who have any suggestions to offer.
With thanks

Hi

Have you obtained a copy of James' Prerogative Court of Canterbury will?

Will of James Russell, Grocer of Hammersmith , Middlesex 09 October 1843 PROB 11/1987

does it give any further clues especially since all the known children were still minors at the time of their father's death?



Regards

Valda
