Re: William morrell and Elizabeth morrell

According to GRO index a William Morrell died Wortley 1849 age 44 and an Elizabeth Morrell died Wortley 1876 age 74. If they are yours then you are looking for just Elizabeth in the censuses.

Another possible marriage is on 1 Nov 1830 to a Elizabeth Beet at Sheffield Cathedral.

Re: William morrell and Elizabeth morrell

thanks sue s
With the article i was sent about the murder of thomas cooke,the witness Elizabeth morrell stated that one of the deceased brothers had married her sister,
now i have all of his brothers with there wifes but not a Holms,
so now with you finding the Elizabeth Beet marriage 1830 sheffield cathedral,i am now wondering if this is elizabeth morrell,and her surname not being Holms but beet,unless she was married befor to a Holms,as i do have a marriage for a Charles cooke to a Jane beet 1840,
so elizabeth morrell could be the older sister of Jane beet

Re: William morrell and Elizabeth morrell

Hi Mr Cook/Sue,

Now thats making more sense. Age wise if she was Elizabeth Holms William would have been only 15 when they married which I dont think would have worked.


William Morrell baptised 10th Nov 1805 at Ecclesfield
born 10th October 1805. Fathers name John.

There are other Morrells baptised Ecclesfield.
S&DFHS have a CD and I did find them on Family Search (free)
Not 100% sure about Ancestry & FindMayPast.

Question do the Libraries in Sheffield still give free access to Ancestry or FindMyPast??????
