I'm trying to find out the surnames of the two wives of Isaac Barrell, my Gt Gt Grandfather. It seems he was married to Ellen Jane and to Mary. He had 4 children between 1853 and 1862 with Mary and a further 10 between 1867 and 1884 with Ellen Jane. I've found an Isaac Barrell on FreeBMD fror Dec 1865 Colchester (4a 1178) but there is no other person on the page. I can find nothing for the first marriage. I assume this marriage was also in Colchester. Any ideas. I live in Hereford so I can't come and look through records in Colchester. Isaac came from Langham and all the kids are down as being born in either Myland or Colchester (but that is only the district where the birth was registered on FreeBMD). He's living in Ipswich Road Lion & Lamb Lane, Mile End on the 1881 census
