TERRILL GENEALOGY RECORDS John Terrill Wayland, Jr http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~wayland/terrill/pafg28.htm#565
George TYRRELL Sir was born in 1520 in , , Essex, England. He died on 16 May 1571 in South Ockendon, Essex, , England. George married Eleanor Elizabeth MONTAGUE.
Other marriages: COOKE, Margery
"Lord of the Manors of Bruyn and Fobbing, Essex. I have used the spelling as "Tyrrell" as this is most used by the English line, whereas "Terrill" and "Terrell" are limited mostly to the American branch. Of course, there was general carelessness in spelling in the old days. The children of George and his first wife Eleanor were doubly descended from King Edward I through the two marriages of Joan Plantagenet, dtr. of King Edward I. George being a direct descendant of the first marriage of Joan to Gilbert de Clare, Earl of Gloucester, while Eleanor was a descendant through her second marriage to Ralph de Monthermer. (Dicken). Much of the line back from here has been thoroughly researched by the English Tyrrell family. Joseph Henry Tyrrell of London is one for example, who was considered to be an authority on the line. He published "Genealogical History of the Tyrrells", including an American supplement. Edwin H. Terrell of San Antonio, Texas also published a book given the English lines. Joseph H. Tyrrell says in his book, "As descendants of Edward I and Eleanor of Castile, it follows that the Tyrrells or Tirrells of Essex bucks, Berks, and of America, claim descent from the Saxon Kings of England; the Kings of France and Spain; the Dukes of Normandy; the Counts of Flanders, etc." He gives a chart showing these descents. Alexandros J. Quayle gives a different lineage in his 1925 book, showing the line coming from George's son, Edward, and then to Robert. Line back is also different.
Eleanor Elizabeth MONTAGUE was born in 1525 in , , , England. She died in 1560. Eleanor married George TYRRELL Sir.
She is called both Elizabeth and Eleanor in different sources. Their children are shown on chart #2 by J.H. Tyrrell in his book, pp. 22, 23, American Sup.
