bullet  General Notes:

I have not yet discovered a birth or baptism record for Henry. Evidence of Henry's connection to James and Ellen is as follows:
1. The death notice of Ellen refers to "the residence of her son Mr H Murrell". She died at Nile, Tas, 1901.
2. A Henry Murrell (& Susan Murrell, wife?) were marriage witnesses at the marriage of George Johnson to Mary Ann Murrell
3. Henry Murrell married Susan Turner at Launceston in 1879. He was aged 22, she 17. Unfortunately no parents are listed, and there were no Murrells amongst the witnesses.
4. Susan Murrell was buried at Nile, Tas in 1922.
