Notes for Sydney Coke THURTELL

---

The family tree done by Harriet Thurtell about 1900 and the History of
the Thurtell Family done by Susan Persia Thurtell about 1968, both in the
possession of Susan Persia Thurtell Miller, show Sydney Thurtell married
Lucy Pownall and had no issue.

The IGI file at the LDS Family History Center Batch C075291 shows Sydney
Coke Thurtell, son of Walter Thurtell and Honor Clark, was christened
September 28, 1825, at Wells Next the Sea, Independent, Norfolk, England.

Information received in 1997 from Peter Murray shows that Sydney Coke
Thurtell, baptised September 28, 1825 at the Wells next the Sea
Independent Church, Norfolk, and living in the 1880's, changed his name
to Turner presumably because of the still lingering notoriety of the name
Thurtell many years after the famous murder. He was visited in England
by G.A.E.Murray as mentioned in letters (where is not clear from the
letters, possibly near the Evans family in Stroud, Glos.?). He married,
Lucy Pownell, but had no children.
