Hi Maurice

As in my other reply, my main interest is the Marfell Family and note that the family had their name spelt a number of ways, for the very reason you suggest - they could not write themselves. I have shown all 1446 Marfell's in my Family tree as Marfell, regardless of the spelling found on various Parish Registers. Note the Meek family used to be Mook, Brain often found as Brayne, as for the Treherne family, you can imagine the countless possibilities.

I have a lot of connections with the Teague family; Ann Teague 1781 married Moses Marfell, Laura Eliza Teague 1867 married Francis Raymond Marfell, Frank Teague born abt. 1908 married Minnie Marfell. Returning officer Edward Teague 1835 married Mary Boughton, their daughter Susan Jane Teague married William Baldwin. If you follow back 4 generations from William Baldwin, you reach one of my 4 times great grandparents William Herbert who married Margaret Wood.
