James Murrell - Cunning Man of Hadleigh

[SPARHAM]

Hi All, can anyone supply the names of James' parents, wife, or siblings please.  James was the famous Cunning Man of Hadleigh.  When he went out he wore a pair of iron goggles and carried a whalebone umbrella.   I have the other famous Cunning Man in my tree - George Pickergill, The Last Great Wizard of Canewdon - my 3 x Great Uncle on the maternal side - would love to make it a double whammy as I have many Essex Murrells on my tree but cannot connect James - there may be no connection but any info would be much appreciated

Thank you very much.   Sparham

Hi,

If you do an internet seach on  "James Murrell + Hadleigh" you should find plenty of sites about him.

Hi Nanny Jan, just looking through your names and I see you have a Catherine Wakeling.  I have many Wakelings in my tree (my 3x and 4x Great Grandfathers and way back to my 13th Gt Grandfather Robert) are Wakelings.  Mostly living in Suffolk or Essex.   Can I be of help?

Hi,

Thanks for the offer but my Wakeling line is from Oxfordshire; however Catherine  was born in London.
