Family History
Help please
Hi I am looking for any descendants of Vera and Harry W Murrell. They lived in Long road Canvey Island in the 1980s and maybe before.They were my aunt and uncle. I have very scant info, but searching various records I think they may have had 3 children, Sheila born about 1941 and Dennis and Geoffrey born circa 1945. This may not be correct though. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I had an Auntie Vera and Uncle Harry, who lived on Canvey Island in the 1940s to 50s ( maybe before the war too). They were not relatives but were best friends of my parents. Harry, raced greyhounds and played bowls. I last saw Harry at the clinic where he died in the early 1950s. I don’t know what happened to Vera. I don’t recall their surname.
Hi Suzy,
Probably not a lot a lot of help now but I recall that Vera Murell worked in the Canvey on Sea Post Office when Rosa Webb was in charge , early to mid 60s. However I don’t remember any children who if your d.o.b s are correct would have been close to my age at the time.

Graham, One of our pony boys at the time was called Dennis Murrel. The family lived in one of the roads off of Hollbeck . i replied to the lady at the time on Facebook, someone said Dennis emigrated.
Thanks Tony, after I made the comment I remembered a son, still don’t have a visual recollection of him but you have confirmed his existence for me. Graham
