1861,1871 census look up Burchell
« on: Sunday 15 April 07 15:12 BST (UK) »
I have come across two Richard BURCHELLS, father and son. of interest in the 1881 census at 4 Victoria Pl Bermondsey, Surrey, England

Richard Burchell aged 60 born County Cork Labourer
Richard Burchell aged 21 born Bermondsey Labourer.

This might be an uncle of my great grandfather Richard Birchell who came from Co Leitrim but I'd always been told his family originated in Co Cork.

Any help at finding these 2 Richard's and other family greatly appreciated.

Thanking you in advance.

Very Best Regards

This is an excellent find Sue. First sighting where Richard senior is a widower and there are other children, all sons. Something suspicious about all these Irish families with no girls. Another piece in the puzzle and very much appreciate.

Thank you so much
Very Best Regards

Maybe we've hit upon a true life Fagan! Very odd that there's no wife. Maybe she was ill due to the last birth and went back to Ireland. This looks very promising with the names similar to my own Burchells. I wanted to follow this up as my grandfather always  said his family were from Cork. Yet the other records show his father born in Co Leitrim. Thank you so much Sue. Looks like they'll have been in Ireland in 1851 as there's a 6 year gap.

Very Best Regards
