Hi Rex

I have quite a lot of information about this family in NZ, but would welcome information about Lucy's family in Australia.

Hi there, my husband is descended from Charles Purnell and Sarah Ann Clegg who came to NZ in the 1850s. I've only just begun researching this side of the family and have some info on NZ descendants.

Hi there,

I don't think your Charles connected to my family of Purnells.
Happy hunting,
Sandra

Hi.
Thanks for the link but I don't think there is any connection to my Purnells. All , including Charles Purnell came to Wales to live and died here to my kknowledge.
Thanks again,
Sandra

Hi Simon, thanks for the link to info on the New Plymouth Purnells, from whom my husband is directly descended. Saved me a lot of time mapping out the tree!

Hi there,
My Purnells come from Clutton , Somerset and moved later to South wales. Are you interested please.
Sandra

Hello my name is Trevor Purnell and I am searching my ancestors who hail from Clutton.  I have a Samuel Purnell born 1768, married Elizabeth Parfitt and had three children Samuel, Jacob and Ruth.  I believe that his wife died and he remarried (Jane Kimmings) and went on to have another six children. Of these six Charles born 1825 or 26 is the line I am interested in since it leads to my grandfather, Charles Purnell, who moved to Newport, married Alice Griffin who gave died in child birth giving birth to my father Stanley, Griffin.  Grateful if you have information on this line.

Regards

James Purnell born abt 1602 in Boldre, Hampshire married to Joane Rheade/Rhodes in 1627 in Boldre is a bit of a brickwall.

Looks like the same Purnells that you are researching Allan and I would be grateful for any information.

Regards

Paul
