Ursula Russell married Charles Walter Sharp, a gardener, in East Farleigh on 25 July 1846[/b] 1847

See freebmd - death for Cordelia 1843 so no emigration there - you have the wrong Cordelia
Tree on Ancestry shows Ursula died 3.9.1867 Papanui - NZ
If you look at that tree - Ursula was b 1829 & Cordelia 1835 so Cordelia could not have married in 1840?
Suggest you have a look at the tree & perhaps contact the owner

Hi Margaret
The Cordelia RUSSELL you seek, was actually married in New Zealand.
NZ Marriage Index
1855 - Cordelia Frances RUSSELL -- James JACKSON
As advised by CaroleW there is a "tree" [trees] at ancestry.com (search on Charles Walter SHARP - m. Ursula Mary RUSSELL. )
There are also a number of trees (@ ancestry) for Cordelia Frances Clarence RUSSELL / James JACKSON. [At least one of these trees was supported by her New Zealand Death Cert. which confirmed names of her parents. ]

Ursula Mary SHARP (nee RUSSELL) :
Had trouble finding her at first - her death is recorded on the New Zealand Index as "Mary".
1867 / 7578 - SHARP - Mary - 35 years
Noting also ... as deduced from the NZ online Death Index, Mary's date of death is given as
4* September 1867, (rather than 3 September 1867) .
~ Lu
Added: On re-reading the Inquest into death of Mary SHARPE (sic) [Mary SHARP - aka Ursula Mary SHARP] seems she died during the night of Tuesday - which was 3 September 1867.]
-
"Mary SHARPE" ( Ursula Mary SHARP ) :
Hi Margaret
This is the inquest into the death of "Mary" (Ursula Mary) SHARP -- shown in this report as "Mrs Mary SHARPE".
https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/CHP18670905.2.10
... there is mention of "deceased's son" (do you have his name ?? Not sure if he was NZ-born ? )
~ Lu

You can search here for children born to Cordelia Frances and James JACKSON >
https://www.bdmhistoricalrecords.dia.govt.nz/search
... although they are all named in one of the trees at ancestry.

Thankyou ALL so very much, for your time and trouble, and YES there was a New Zealand connection
I shall have great pleasure, in reading it all. thankyou very much, great team work.Margaret..

Regarding Ursula's marriage, the register page clearly says 1846, but it must be an error - should be 1847 as others have said.

Thankyou.Margaret.
