Philip Murrell
Philip Murrell married Mary Bishop on 13 March 1793 at Arundel, Sussex, England, both of Arundel, witnesses were Thos. Cooper and Fanny Lilywhite.1
A document exists (Par 8. Arundel 36/1) dated 17 May 1798 which is an order of the Justice of the Peace to pay Mary Murrell of Arundel four shillings and sixpence per week. Philip Murrell is described as a private serving in the Sussex Supplementary Regiment of Militia in his own right as a ballotted man for the parish of Arundel. The document lists his children as Philip aged 5 years and George aged 3 years. The sum of four shillings and sixpence is described as being the usual and ordinary price of three days labour in husbandry within the said county.
Philip Murrell witnessed the marriage of Philip Murrell and Charlotte Evans on 28 August 1838 at Roman Catholic Chapel, Slindon, Sussex, England.2
Philip Murrell was a labourer on 28 August 1838.
Philip's occupation was recorded as labourer in 1838 on his son Philip's marriage certificate. Philip appears to have died before 1837 as he was not located in the civil registration records (which started in 1837) - although he is not recorded as deceased on the marriage certificate in 1838??? A search of the Sussex Burial Index 1812 to 1837 did not reveal any Philip MURRELL's.
The list of children came from the IGI. The family may have moved from Arundel after 1801 so there may be more.
In the 1841 census for Portland St, Brighton:
Jane Murrell 40 yrs widow b. Sussex
Jane Murrell 20 yrs b. Sussex
Joseph Murrell 19 yrs b. Sussex
Mary Murrell 15 yrs b. Sussex
Stephen Murrell 14 yrs b. Sussex
Maria Murrell 12 yrs b. Sussex
It is not known where these fit in (if they do).
There is a double gravestone in St Mary's (C of E) Slindon, W. Sussex which reads " In Loving Memory of Edmund MURRELL son of John and Ann MURRELL who departed this life the 6th of March 1875 Aged 88 years. In Loving Memory of Sarah relic of Edmund MURRELL and Daughter of Edward & Ann MORRIS who departed this life the 8th Nov. 1876 Aged 82 years. Many years respected inhabitants of this Parish." Edmund would have been born about 1787, Ann 1794. Could John be a brother of Philip MURRELL ?
