Hi Janet, thanks for a fascinating post. A few scattered comments on it that you may be able to help with.
A link to Lancelot Andrew(e)s would be great, though it's perhaps a bit unlikely that a great High Churchman would have so many dissenters among his descendants and their spouses.
Similarly, Emily Andrews marrying Rev William Temple might suggest a link to the two Archbishops Temple but again I doubt it. Do you know anything about William - I have found him in West Ham in 1841 but not thereafter?
Mordecai I is show in IGI to be buried on 16/2/1649 at Bunhill Fields Cemetery, London.
"Mrs Mordecai Andrews" (who we have as Elizabeth Rutt) is stated to be the granddaughter of Rev John Mason 1677-1723 in a contemporary book, which doesn't stack up with your Elizabeth Towill as her mother. Any thoughts?
Do you realise that Emily Augusta was the model for Coventry Patmore's most famous poem, "Angel in the house"? There is a picture of her by Millais on the Wikipedia entry for Coventry.
