	Benjamin wasn't Samuel's brother. Looks like (allowing for mistransciptions) that he was the other James Robert's brother. TURRELL, BENJAMIN JOHN MINN Order GRO Reference: 1847 D Quarter in GREAT YARMOUTH Volume 13 Page 348 That would explain why you haven't found Benjamin, James and Samuel together on census. Ben will be on a census with a James Robert and Samuel will be in a different household with his brother James Robert.

	Sorry Prickles, I was editing my post while you were adding yours. I don't think the one who married Sarah is Samuel's brother.

Member Since: December 2004 Posts: 79 Send Message	Thanks I believe there was also an older brother Benjamin born 1848 but can't find them on any census together- would also like to find if Benjamin had children. Ginny

	Note that the marriage i posted for James Robert Turrell......names his father as Benjamin Occ: Fisherman. It needs checking because on the 1871 census, James Robert's father James is a Fishing Boat Owner.
