Notes

Note N295Baptism in Wick Parish register (being 5 weeks old). Marriage 9 Sep 1844 (Churchill Parish Register.) George, son of George Counsell, bachelor, age 40, of Stock (near Churchill). Occupation Labourer. (Churchill parish register at baptism of son Mark). The 1861 census shows George Counsell, 57, lead smelter of St George's, Gloucester, wife Ann 55, Mark 12 scholar, all born at Churchill. The 1881 census shows a George Counsell as a pauper of Bristol St George Crews Hole, aged 77, born in Churchill, which is not far from Wick St Lawrence, with a wife Ann aged 76, so probably the same.
1891 census Crews Hole Rd, Bristol St George, 88 widower living on own means, b. Churchill, living with grandson Albert J. Woodey 25 Boot top Cutter, b. St George, Glos.
Summary of Birth, Marriages and Deaths registers gives his death in Barton Regis (=Clifton, Bristol) in the December quarter of 1892.
emailed on 8 Jan 2010:
You show that George & Ann had four children. Two of these, Fanny & Mark are shown with their parents on the 1851 Census and Mark only is shown living with his parents on the 1861 Census. Fanny & Mark are registered in the Index of Births the the surname of Councell while the other two Ellen & George are registered with the surname of Counsell. Further more, the birth registrations of Mark in 1848 Q3 & George in 1848 Q1 don't up add if they are brothers. Call me a Doubting Thomas (or even a Suspicious Herbert) but I suspect that the parents of Ellen & George are NOT George & Ann, although of course if anyome has their births certificates & it says som then I creep away into the naugty corner and wear my dunce's hat!
Note:- In the 1851 Census there are:-
* Ellen Counsell, born abt 1848 in Glastonbury living in Glastonbury with her parents
* George Counsell, born abt 1848 in Blagdon living in Winscombe with her parents John & Matilda
