Hi Mike & Maurice

The names Teague & Marfell caught my eye as I have 50 Teague's in my family and my main interest is the Marfell family of which I have 1468. I struggled however to
find specifics. However I do have a George Teague 1753 who married a Hannah Martin as below :

There is a baptism for a George Teague 16 Dec 1753 Ruardean to a James & Hannah, but the spelling is Teauge.

My interest in this George Teague & Hannah nee Martin is that their daughter Ann 1781/1872 married my 5 times Great Uncle Moses Marfell 1774/1861. Moses Marfell 1774 and Ann nee Teague had a son Edmund 1800 who married Anne Burdock 1804, they had 6 children including Hiram born 15 March 1838 - see below for details of Hiram. Detailed below are my notes for Moses Marfell where you will see that the memorial inscription was wrong.

1841 Census Harry Hill
Moses Marfell head M 66 Labourer

1851 Census
87
MARFIELD Moses 80 Ag. Lab Ruardean

At a different address along the street, his wife :

1851 Census
93
MARFIELD Ann 70 House Proprietor Ruardean
Leah Grand Daughter 9 East Dean

Newland 1799
# 18
Moses Marfell, Batchelor and Ann Teague, Spinster both on the Hundred of St Briavel's were married in this Church by Banns this 19th day of August in the year one thousand seven hundred and ninety-nine by me R. Gibson, Vicar
This marriage was solemnized between us (both signed)
In the presence of John Marfell Tho's Bond


Memorial Inscription ;
(north) In memory of Moses MARFELL who died Feb 28 1861 aged 87 years. Also Ann his wife who died May 25 1872, aged 91 years.
(west) Also Mary Ann daughter of Edmund and Ann MARFELL of Drybrook who died Jan 3?rd 1880 aged 72 years. Also Ann his wife who died Oct 19 1871 aged 67 years.
(east) Also Lydia daughter of Edmund and Ann MARFELL who died June 18th 1868,25 years.

Mary Ann was born in 1835 - she could not have been the child of Edmund & Ann she would have been born in 1808. It quotes her parents as Edmund & Ann, who married in 1833. Mary Ann was born in 1835, her mother Ann was born in 1804. The death date quoted is that of Edmund Marfell.

Notes for Hiram Marfell 1838 :

2 Birth Certificates - I have both. Birth registered twice at Ross & Westbury.
1870 Emigrated to USA. Working as labourer in Denver 1876. 1880 Census Denver.1900 US Census shown as Widower, retired Mine owner.

1884 - in a civil case "Union Pacific Railway versus McDONALD", the Jackson,
Marfell & Mitchell mines Erie, Co. are referred to -In Union Pacific Railway versus GOODRIDGE the company Goodridge & Marfell is mentioned as sueing the railway for fixing rates on hauling coal.

I have a lengthy document regarding Hiram Marfell and his sueing the Union Pacific Railway, but it is written by him and therefore needs a few morsels of salt.

In Erie, Colorado there is a Marfell Street.

I tend to follow siblings & parents of spouses and follow those lines - sometimes too far. I have a Maurice Teague in my Family Tree whose great grandfather George Teague 1854 married Emma Powell 1850. They are only in my tree as George Teague & Emma's son William George Teague 1872 married Alice Abiah Simmonds 1876. Alice Abiah had a sister Julia Hannah Simmonds born 23.4.1876 who married my 7th cousin twice removed William Tippins born 7.1.1858.

If this is your line Maurice, is there a connection between George Teague 1854 and George Teague 1753 ?
