hazell's of Co Norfolk
Synopsis: Part of a one-name study of Hazell/Hazle's in Co Norfolk, England

Surname Index Page Norfolk Index Hazell's - main page Hazell's of Pulham & Pulham Market Other Hazell's of Co Norfolk

A genealogical study of the Hazell's of Co Norfolk, England. This page contains charts of those Hazell families who are not connected with the Hazell's of Pulham & Pulham Market (my own Hazell's), which are charted separately. Post 1800 there appear to be 9 main groups of Hazell's living in Co Norfolk (A-I below), along with another 4 who either died out or left the county by the early 1800's (J-L, plus the Pulham Hazell's).Whether any of these groups are related to any of the others is likely impossible to tell, given the patchy nature of the pre-1800 records for Norfolk. Given that in at least some cases, the surname "Hazell" is probably derived from the hazel tree, which is common across much of Norfolk, it is likely the name arose independently across the county, in much the same way as Smith, Brown etc would have arisen. Hazell's in the far west of Norfolk likely include some who have crossed the border from Cambridgeshire, where the name is not uncommon (see the charts on the Hassell's of Cambridgeshire). The name also appears in Suffolk where it likely shares a similar origin to that in Norfolk.

Please do not hesitate to email me with any corrections &/or additions to these charts. Whilst AFAIK the Hazell's on this page are not related to mine (of Pulham), I am happy to update these charts should new information arise.

The chart to the right shows the approximate location of the various Hazell groupings that can be found in County Norfolk. Not marked on the map, Pulham & Pulham Market can be found roughly 1cm above the 'a' in the word 'Waveney' in the bottom-right side of the map.

Either use the shortcut links immediately below to go to a region of interest or use the search function in your web browser to search for a particular place name or individual.

When using the individual's name to search, be aware that there is a large degree of variability in the spelling of Hazell, even for the same individual. I have generally used either the earliest spelling variation used for a particular individual or the most common one used by that individual, consequently children will frequently have different surname spellings from their father's (or mothers if illegitimate).

Hempstead by Holt & Matlaske, Erpingham district, Co Norfolk

I have found no records of Hazell's in the Erpingham district prior to Samuel - whether this reflects a lack of records or that Samuel arrived in the area from elsewhere is unknown. Samuel has no confirmed children, however the following generation were all in a relatively small area, well away from other Hazell's and shared many common forenames.

West Lexham, Great Massingham & Rougham (near East Dereham), Mitford district, Co Norfolk. 1781- post 1881.

Francis appears in the district with his marriage in 1809. Around the same time Mary Hazell also appears in the same area. No other Hazell's are in the area. Francis & Mary may be siblings, however there is no trace of their parents in either the parish records of the BMD indices. Mary's first child was illegitimate and he and his descendents interchangably used Hazell and Mary's married name, Hilton. Somewhat confusingly, one individual was called variously Hazel Hilton & Hilton Hazel!


1. Francis Hazel,[1] born 1781.[15,19] Died 1855 & buried 21/1/1855, St Nicholas, West Lexham, Co Norfolk (74yo).[12,19] Labourer, 1826,1839,1841,1846.[1] Married Elizabeth Francis,[1] 5/6/1809, Rougham, Co Norfolk.[3] Elizabeth born 1785,[15,19] died 1834 & buried 31/10/1847, St Nicholas, West Lexham, Co Norfolk (63yo).[19] Resided 1841, Mitford & Launditch district, Co Norfolk.[15] {I have been unable to find Francis in the 1851 census which would have given his place of birth. Even examining a list of all residents of East Lexham failed to yield his presence. A search of all Francis' in Norfolk born before 1800 also fails to find him. He is evidently missing from the LDS 1851 Census CD, nor does he appear on the ancestry.com 1851 census index, however he is clearly alive as per his burial in 1855}

East Dereham area, 1730's- post 1881.

Two family groups appear in the East Dereham region in the mid 1700's. Peter & Ann (siblings) appear in Gressenhall/Scarning in the 1770's. A group of 6 Hazell's appear in or within 1km of East Dereham slightly earlier. This later group share many common forenames and all appear within a small area. It is possible Peter & Ann also belong to this group, however common forenames in each group suggest otherwise.

Peter & Ann appear to be contemporaries in the Scarning/Gressenhall area. Possibly siblings. Ann is known only from the birth and subsequent death a few months later of an illegitimate child in Gressenhall. Peter first appears in Scarning, by the mid 1780's he has moved to Gressenhall.

The identity of the first generation is unknown. The 7 suggested siblings of "unknown" below all appear in or near East Dereham in the mid 1700's. There appear sufficient links between them to suggest they are all siblings. There are no unplaced burials in or near East Dereham in the mid to late 1700's that could belong "unknown" or his wife. It is however very doubtful that a group of 7 siblings would have settled in East Dereham as adults, coming from elsewhere. The size of the group indicates that they either were born in or near East Dereham or moved there with their parents as young children. Burials for East Dereham date back to at least the 1730's, however how complete the pre-1800 coverage is, is unknown. Possibly "Unknown" was buried in a parish neighboring East Dereham, for which the PR's either no longer exist or have not yet been transcribed. Baptismal records for East Dereham do not seem to exist prior to the late 1700's, so it is quite possible that the pre-1800 records are poorly preserved and little remains. A not uncommon situation for Norfolk, alas.

South Broads finger - Ashby, Seething etc. c.1720 - post 1881.
South Broads finger - Ashby, Seething etc. c.1720 - post 1881.

The South Broads finger is a 22 x 8km sausage shaped area running NW-SE along the south band of the River Yare, stretching in the east from around Burg St Peter to the outskirts of Norwich in the west. The Yare seems to have provided a very significant geographical boundary with very few crossings from this district (and many of those that do exist appear to be modern). The southern boundary is less clearly defined, however there is a very obvious diminishing in the number of villages south of a line running NW/SE thru' Seething - until one approaches the Suffolk border and the concentration of villages again increases.

Several Hazell  familes appear around the mid to late 1700's all within a 5km radius roughly centred on the village of Ashby.
John (b.1745) & Hannah were in Rockland St Mary [3km NW of Ashby] by the early 1700's. Group A
Charles (b.1761) & Elizabeth appear in Carleton St Peter [1km east of Ashby] & Ashby itself. Group D
Samuel (b.1720's) & Mary appear in Seething [5km south of Ashby] by 1749. Group C (and E)
Thomas (b.1743) & Sarah appear in Loddon [5km SE of Ashby] in the 1760's. Group B
South Broads finger - Ashby, Seething etc. c.1720 - post 1881.

John & Charles are not sons of Samuel (he had a son, John, born 1756 & several children on & around 1761), however given their proximity there is a good chance there is some connection between these families. There were Hazell's in the Toft Monks' area (the SE tip of the "sausage") however these appear to have left the district by 1700, moving to Great Yarmouth to the east & Redenhall to the south (on the Suffolk border). Descendents of Charles & Samuel remain in the district until at least the 1880's. John's sons either left the area or died without any surviving issue. Thomas had a large family (10 children), but apart from that single generation there is no further trace of this family in Norfolk after Thomas' death in 1784. Most of his children died young - at least 2/3rd's are known to have died young, possibly the others died young as well.

GROUP C & GROUP E (parent of Group C)

Bergh Apton (Group C) is just under 2km SE of Yelverton. Alpington is a small hamlet midway between the two, less than 1km from Bergh Apton. Poringland is about 2km east of Yelverton. It is speculated that Samuel Jr, who married Lydia Ward moved to Yelverton & Burgh Apton. A Lydia Hazell, of the right age, appears as a widow in the 1841 census living in Burgh Apton, along with several adult children nearby. James & Lydia had a son, James Jr, baptised 1784, which roughly matches a possible son of Lydia of Bergh Apton who was "probably born before 1790". Seething is 3km south of Bergh Apton. Thwaite St Mary (also settled by the Seething group) is a further 3km south of Seething.

1.2. Charles Hazell,[3,21] born 1787[9,16]/1791,[14,15] Carleton St Peter, Co Norfolk.[9] Agricultural labourer, 1841.[14] Farmer of 18 acres, 1851.[9] Married Elizabeth Gent,[1] 31/7/1809, Thurton, Co Norfolk.[21] Elizabeth born 1788, Rockland St Mary, Co Norfolk,[21] & died before 1841. Charles resided 1841,1851, Claxton, Loddon district, Co Norfolk.[9,14,15] Resided 1861, Loddon district, Co Norfolk.[16] {I originally had this Charles "born before 1790" & married to Elizabeth Gent and children James, George & Honour. Source [21] states this Charles is the same person who was born c.1787, Carleton and resided Claxton in 1841,1851. This would explain the presence of only one Charles of this approx. age in the area in the census records. It does create a conflict between the supposed place of births. At least two of Charles of Claxton's childen were supposedly born at Claxton, whilst the children of Charles & Elizabeth were born &/or baptised at Mundham. The two villages, while not too far apart, are far enuf apart not to be confused. The evidence for the births at Claxton only comes from the 1851 census, whilst the Mundham location comes from parish baptismal records. Errors in census' are places of birth are common, especially when the family moved whilst the child was quite young. I have merged the two familes, as per [21], however note there is some uncertainity. Source [21] does have some errors, giving Charles' middle name as Edmund, obviously a mixup with his brother, and also attributing Jonah (1804) to Charles, which is doubtful given the date of his marriage (1809), and Thomas born 1811, Yelverton}

Centre Broads finger - Blofield, Hemblington. 1780 - after 1881.

Samuel Hazell appears in the district in 1813. He does not appear to have been native to the area since his first 3 children were born in the South Broads region. While the 1851 census claims he was born in Burlingham (which is possibly either Burlingham Green, Burlington Ho or North Burlington, all within a 1km2 block in the Centre Broads region about 3km east of Blofield, the parish church is at North Burlington), I have some doubts since there is no trace of any other Hazell's in the region before Samuel or contemporary to him. Given the baptisms of his first three children, I suspect Samuel is part of the Southern Broads group, possibly the son of Samuel Hazell who settled in Bergh Apton. Samuel of Bergh Apton somewhat unusually did not have a known son named Samuel. Was Samuel of Blofield this unknown son? Living with Samuel in 1851 was a widow, Hannah Hazell. I have been unable to find any other trace of this Hannah, either in the 1841 census or her death. It is possible her surname given in the 1851 census was an error. Given that she was born in the same village as Samuel's wife, it is possible she was the sister of Samuel's wife & she was mistakenly listed as Hazell in the 1851 census. This would seem the most likely scenario to me.


1. Samuel Hazell,[1,9,32] born 1778[9]/1781[15], Burlingham, Co Norfolk.[9] Gardener, 1813,1851.[1,9] Died March quarter, 1858, Blofield district, Co Norfolk.[12] Married Mary[1,9] West.[1] Mary born 1779[9]/1782[1,12,13,15,16] Strumpshaw, Co Norfolk,[9] died June quarter,[12] 1873 & buried 28/5/1873, All Saints, Hemblington,[1] Blofield district, Co Norfolk (90yo).[1,12] Resided 1841, Blofield, Co Norfolk.[15,44] Living with them, 1841, was Maryann Hazel, born 1826.[44] {Identity unknown, possibly a grandchild.

North Broads Region - Tunstead, Stalham & Barton Turf area. Before 1700 - post 1881.
North Broads Region - Tunstead, Stalham & Barton Turf area. Before 1700 - post 1881.

This district is wedged between the sea on the north-east and The Broads on the south, specifically the River Bure. There appear to be three distinct family groupings in this region, one centred on North Walsham (Thomas Hazell & Elizabeth Saddler), the second  at Tunstead (Richard Hazell & Sarah Atkins) and a 3rd grouping in the area of Buxton/Coltishall/Sco Ruston. The later group appears earlier & may or may not be a valid grouping (it is speculative!), however it appears in a relatively small area (several square km's) and have many forenames in common. In contrast, the Tunstead family has a preference for the name Richard, which is totally absent from the Buxton/Sco Ruston group. The North Walsham family has a preference for the forename Samuel, which is totally absent from the othert groups. This all suggests that the three groups are not closely related, at least not after 1700. Please note that the Buxton/Coltishall/Sco Ruston is rather speculative. North Walsham is about half-way between The Bure and the coast whilst Tunstead is about 2-3km north of The Bure. {North Walsham is the the major town in the north-east of Norfolk. It is NNE of Norwich, about 4/5th's the way to the coast. Worstead is 5km south of North Walsham. Tunstead is about 11km south of Tunstead, roughly equidistant between Tunstead & Norwich, although not on a straight line between the two.Sco Ruston is about 2.3km NW of Tunstead. Barton Turf & Neatishead are around 5km east of Tunstead. Smallburgh is just under 5km NE of Tunstead (and the same distance SE of North Walsham, roughly equidistant between the two)}.

Great Ellingham, Carbrooke, Stow Bedon, Rockland All Saints, Thompson. Merton, Saham Toney region. c.1710 - post 1881.

There are a handful of Hazell BMD's scattered around the Ellingham/Stowe Bedon area in the 1600's and early 1700's, however there is no evidence that they are connected to the family group below. The early Hazell's in the area had a strong preference for Edmund's, a name unknown in the later Hazell families. It is interesting to note that the Robert who married Elizabeth Cushing was living near Kings Lynn prior to his marriage. If he is indeed a member of this family group, that does suggest the possibility that the group came from Kings Lynn or thereabouts. Of course, it is quite possible that Robert was originally from the Ellington/Stowe Bedon area and had only been near Kings Lynn for a few years (or even less). There was a Hazell family in Kings Lynn up to the mid 1700's and John was a common name in that family so John & Ann (generation 1 below) could have easily come from there.


1. John Hazle,[1,3] probably born between 1710-1720. Married Anne.[1,3]

Children of John Hazell & Anne:

i.
  
 Robert Heasell, born before 1741. {Possible son - Robert had a son, Reuben, a name common in this family group and appearing no-where else apart from a stray from London in the mid 1800's}. Married Elizabeth Cushing, 31/12/1761, St Peter, Reymerston, Co Norfolk.[1] At the time of the marriage Robert resided Each Winch (near Kings Lynn, Co Norfolk) & Elizabeth resided Reymerston, Co Norfolk.[1] Witesses were Cornel Secker & Fran Secker.[1] On 17/10/1769 Elizabeth was a witness, along with Gregory Durrant, at the marriage of James Knights & Jane Goss, St Peter, Reymerston, Co Norfolk.[1]

 ii.
Reuben Heasell,[1,3] born 1741.[1] {Possible son}

iii.
James Hazel,[1] born before 1750. {Possible son - in the area & named a son, John, howver that is a very common forename. Reuben, possible brother of James, did have several grandsons named James. James does not appear to have any surviving issue and the Hazell's who appear in Thompson in the mid 1800's are descendents of Reuben, above} Married 1st Mary.[1] Mary died 1771 & buried 10/12/1771, St Martin, Thompson, Co Norfolk (wife).[1] Married 2nd Sarah Ely, 29/8/1773, St Martin, Thompson, Co Norfolk.[1]. Married by banns.[1] Sarah died 3/8/1782, St Martin, Thompson, Co Norfolk.[1] Married 3rd Mary Ann Frost, 27/11/1792, St Andrew, Tottington, Co Norfolk.[1] At the time of the marriage James was of Thompson, Co Norfolk & Mary of Tottington, Co Norfolk.[1] Witnesses were John Houchin & Jonathan Eastgate.[1]

1.2. Unknown Heasell. Likely born between 1750-1755. {The following children all appear in Great Ellington around the same time. They do not appear to be children of Reuben, born 1741, either because Reuben & his wife would have been too old when they were born or Reuben had other children in the same year - unless there were twins, but no baptisms for the following are known. Consequently it is possible (likely even) that they are the children of an unknown younger brother of Reuben, probably born around 1750-1755 (the narrow range accounts for the oldest & youngest of the speculated children)}

1.1.2. Reuben Heasell, baptised 5/5/1776, St James, Great Ellingham, Co Norfolk.[1] {Reuben is presumably the father of James & Reuben, below. Reuben Jr & James were both born Stow Bedon and the use of the rare forename Reuben strongly suggests a close connection with the family of Reuben (1741-1830). Apart from Reuben (bapt.1776), all other grandsons of Reuben (1741-1830) can be eliminated as the parents of Reuben & James (below) either because they had children or one or both of those names born after James & Reuben below, were too young to have fathered James & Reuben or are known to have been elsewhere in the 1790's. Reuben (1776) evidently died before 1837 since he does not appear in the 1841 census nor in FreeBMD (1837 plus)}. Possibly married Margaret. Margaret Heasell married Christmas Brooks, 2/12 /1812, St Peter & St Paul, East Harling, Co Norfolk.[1] Both resided East Harling at the time.[1] Witnesses Martha Hunt & William Alderton.[1] {Note Christmas (or a son, Christmas Jr) was witness at the marriage of Rebecca, d/o Reuben & William Alderton was witness at the marriage of Margaret, d/o Reuben}

Robert is a common name in this family group and all other Hazell's in the region can be ruled out as Robert's father either due to their age, age of their wives or they had an otherwise accounted for son named Robert. Robert could, of course, easily be a stray from elsewhere}

iii.
Margaret Heasell, born 1801,[9,15] Stow Bedon, Co Norfolk.[9] {Presumed child - Reuben was the only Hazell with a Stow Bedon connection at this time} Married Joseph Hunt, 12/1/1821, St Peter & St Paul, East Harling, Co Norfolk.[1] Joseph born 1800,[9,15] East Harling, Co Norfolk.[9] Witnesses Edmund Draper & William Alderton.[1] Married by banns, Joseph was illiterate, Margaret literate (signed her name).[1] At the time of the marriage both resided East Harling, Co Norfolk.[1] Joseph was a bricklayer, 1821,[1] labourer, 1823-1845,[1] haytrusser, 1851.[9] Resided 1841, Guiltcross, Thetford, Tunstead & Happing district, Co Norfolk.[15] Resided 1851, West Harling Road, East Harling, Guiltcross district, Co Norfolk.[9]

Downham, West Dereham, Stow Bardolph, Wretton, Fordham, Outwell, Stowbridge area. 1748 - post 1881.

Three families appear in and around Downham Market in the late 1700's. Robert & Mary in Downham itself, James (originally of Crimplesham, 2km east of Downham) & Elizabeth of Boughton (who's children moved to Downham by the mid 1800's) and Jacob & Sarah of Wimbotsham. Wimbotsham is about 1km north of Downham Market. Whether the three families are connected or just co-incidently lived in the same small area is unknown. In the mid 1780's all three families were living within 2km of each other, suggesting a connection, however the choice of forenames in each family suggests otherwise. There was a Daniel & Frances Hazell in Stoke Ferry in the 1730's & 1740's (two known daughters),[1] however Daniel does not appear once in any of the families below and Frances (a very common forename) does not appear until the 1830's, so it is doubtful that there is any connection there.

James & Elizabeth were contemporaries and both ended up at Downham. The 1851 census gives James' place of birth as Roughton and Elizabeth's as Boughton. The former appears to be a typo in the census - Roughton is on the opposite side of Norfolk. Whilst I have not found the baptisms for James Jr or Elizabeth, it would seem almost certain that James Sr & Mary were their parents. Crimplesham is about 2km east of Downham Market.

Kings Lynn area. c.1560-c.1750.
Kings Lynn area. c.1560-c.1750.

A Early Hazell family of Kings Lynn. Please note that this family is highly speculative. Because of the fragmentary records, especially from the mid 1600's up to 1800, there is a high degree of guesswork involved in the assembly of this family. It is quite possible that what is presented below as a single family group, spread over generations, may in fact be several different families who moved into the Kings Lynn area at different times over the time period covered. Kings Lynn & South Lynn are today the one city.

Norwich. c.1635-1820's [Highly Speculative]
Norwich. c.1635-1820's [Highly Speculative]

A possible pre-1800 Hazell family from Norwich, Co Norfolk. Please note this genealogy is speculative - the pre-1800 Norwich records are fragmentary and it is quite possible that some of the generational linkages are incorrect & the following generation actually arrived in Norwich from elsewhere. The fact that these Hazell's tended to all use the same common forenames (and no unusual names which could be used as tracers) exacerbates the uncertainity.

There are over a dozen BMD events in Norwich between the 1560's and the early 1600's. I have found no Hazell baptisms between 1604 and the birth of Mary, below, in 1667. It is quite possible that John, below, is connected with this group, possibly through an unknown intermediate generation. Thomas Hazell (m.1671) & Margaret (m.1665) appear to be contemporaries of John and possibly siblings, all three being born around 1640.


1. John Hasell,[1,3] probably born between 1630-1645. Died 1697/1698 & buried 1/1/1697-1698, St Bartholomew, Heigham, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[1] Married 1st Jane Auger, 16/3/1665, St Paul, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[1] Jane died 1672 & buried 28/4/1672, St Paul, Norwich, Co Norfolk (wife of John).[1,19] {Probably died in childbirth - a son was buried a month later} Married 2nd unknown. Possibly married 2nd the Alice who, as Alice Hugal, married James Berry, 6/4/1702, St Bartholomew, Heigham, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[1]

Children of John Hazell & Jane Auger:
*
 i.
  
 Mary Asell, baptised 13/10/1667, St Julian, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[3]

(c)

*
 ii.

1.1. Samuel Hazell,[1,3] probably born between 1675-1795. Died 1728 & buried 24/5/1728, St Julian, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[1] {Burial may be an unknown s/o John & Mary, above} Married Sarah.[1,3]

Children of Samuel Hazell & Sarah:

i.
  
 Samuel Hazel,[3] born before 1715. {No baptism found but reasonable to assume Samuel Sr named a son after himself} Married Ann Harrel, 24/10/1732, St Martin at Oak, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[3]
Children: (a)
  
 John Hazel, baptised 23/3/1734, Saint Martin At Oak, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[3]
(b)
Samuel Hazel, baptised 31/8/1736, Saint Martin At Oak, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[3] Died 1736/1737.
(c)
Samuel Hasill, baptised 15/8/1737, Saint Martin At Oak, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[3]

ii.
Sarah Hassel, baptised 4/3/1715, St Julian, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[3] Possibly the Sarah Hagell who married Thomas Thursby, 1745, St Margaret, Norwich, Co Norfolk,[1] however this would make Sarah somewhat on the old side as a bride.

iii.
Mary Hassel, baptised 1/1/1720-1721, St Julian, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[1,3]
*

Also John born 1722 was buried at St Peter Mancroft as a widower a few years later}
Children: (a)
  
 Thomas Hassell, baptised 17/9/1741, Saint Martin At Oak, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[3]

Children: (a)
  
 Elizabeth Hasell,[1] probably born before 1775. {Possible daughter - other Hazell's in Norwich at the time are ruled out as being her father either because of age or they have daughter's named Elizabeth otherwise accounted for} Married Thomas Stannard, 25/6/1793, St Stephen, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[1,3] At the time of the marriage Elizabeth resided St Stepehen & Thomas resided St Augustine, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[1] Married by banns, witnesses were Robert Gay, Rachel Gay & Ann Stannard.[1] Thomas & Elizabeth were paupers, 1794.[1]

It is possible Sarah & Elizabeth were both d/o Thomas & Mary, above, Elizabeth, listed as d/o Thomas & Mary was in fact the d/o John & Mary} Married Martin Sandall, 6/7/1806, St Stephen, Norwich, Co Norfolk.[1,3] Sarah resided St Stepehn, Norwich & Martin resided Drayton, Co Norfolk, at the time of the marriage.[1] Witnesses were John Watts & Elizabeth Hazell.[1] Married by licence.[1]

Far South-East (Toft Monks, Great Yarmouth Etc). c.1575-1820's [Highly Speculative]
Far South-East (Toft Monks, Great Yarmouth Etc). c.1575-1820's [Highly Speculative]

A Hazell family of Toft Monks & Great Yarmouth. Please note that this family is highly speculative. Because of the fragmentary records, especially from the mid 1600's up to 1800, there is a high degree of guesswork involved in the assembly of this family. It is quite possible that what is presented below as a single family group, spread over generations, may in fact be several different families.

The later generations of the following possible family are confusing, to say the least. Most of the BMD events appear to have been registered (at least in the various indices) at both Great Yarmouth and also at East Dereham. These locations are a considerable distance apart. Great Yarmouth on the south-east coast of Norfolk and East Dereham in the western half, west of Norwich. The confusing of the two locations appears in the IGI[8], FreeREG[1] and also the Norfolk Transcription Archive.[14] I was able to confirm that some of these ambigious events are definitely recorded in the actual St Nicholas, Great Yarmouth parish register, so unless the events were recorded in both locations, the doubled reference to East Dereham would appear to be possibly erronous (both churches are dedicated to St Nicholas, which may be a source of the confusion), possibly all from a single transcriber who submitted data to all the above transcription indices.

Robert, Benjamin & Samuel are all of the same generation and it is possible they were siblings. Roger (b.1770's) is clearly of the next generation and could have been the son of either Benjamin or Robert. I suspect the later since Benjamin's children were still in Great Yarmouth by 1800, whilst there is no evidence for Robert other than the death of a single child. Great Yarmouth PR's are very poor prior to the mid 1700's (stretches of several decades have been destroyed and/or rendered unreadable). It is not possible to determine where Robert, Benjamin & Samuel came from (if they were not born in GY). There were several other burials recorded in GY at this time: Thomas Hazel (buried 1770), Mary Hasel (buried 1774, from workhouse), John Heazel (buried 1776) & Mesach Husel (buried 1780).[1,14] The later is presumably Meshach, named after the biblical character. The forename was very rare but not unknown in Co Norfolk. None of these names reappear amongst Robert, Benjamin & Samuel's families which makes it impossible to tell which, if any, where their parents. Mary from the workhouse could have been an elderly widow - or equally well an infant born in the workhouse. There are no Hazell's in or of Great Yarmouth in the 1851 census. The use of the name Roger, extremely rare amongst Norfolk Hazell's, suggests the Reddenhall connection, as given below. Please note that the connection between the Redenhall Hazell's and those of Great Yarmouth is speculative. The connection between the Hazell's of Long Stratton and Redenhall is likewise speculative, based again on the rare forename, Roger. The Long Stratton Hazell's did travel around quite a bit, from the marriage records, so the assumption is feasable and Great Yarmouth is not far from Toft Monks.

East Paulingland is probably Poringland. Granville first appears in 1838 with his marriage somewhere in the Mitford district. The first definite location for Granville is 1840 when his daughter was born at Bintree. Granville's ancestry is a complete mystery. It is possible that the full census entry for 1841 and/or 1861 may give a more correct place of birth.

Granville Hazell,[3] born 1813,[9,16,19] "East Paulingland" (Poringland), Co Norfolk.[9] Died 1866 & buried 4/12/1866, All Saints, Bawdeswell, Co Norfolk (53yo).[12,19] Tailor, 1851.[9] Married Mary[3] Humphrey, September quarter, 1839, Mitford district, Co Norfolk.[12] Mary born 1819,[9,13,16] Bintry, Co Norfolk.[9] Resided 1851, Bintree ("Bintry"), Mitford district, Co Norfolk.[9] Resided 1861, Shipdham, Mitford district, Co Norfolk.[16] Mary resided 1871, Hampstead, Co Norfolk.[13]

Ashmanaugh is between Tunstead & Neatishead, Co Norfolk. I have been unable, so far, to place Charles within the Tunstead area grouping. After settling in Bunwell the family appears to have remained there. There is no evidence to suggest they are related to the Pulham Hazel's despite two of Charles' sons being buried there. I have been unable to find Charles in the 1841 census index, even using wildcards to widen the net, and there are no obvious parents for him in the Tunstead region. According to his marriage certificate, Charles was the illegitimate son of Annie Hazle & Charles Cutler.[69] Which Anne Hazell was his mother is so far unknown.

1. Charles Hazel, born 1826/1827,[8,13,16,17] Ashmanhaugh, Co Norfolk.[8,17] {[8] spells it as Ashmolow} Died June quarter, 1883, Depwade district, Co Norfolk.[12] Shoemaker, 1861,1881.[8,17] Married Mary Ann Grant,[9] September quarter, 1850, Depwade district, Co Norfolk.[12] Mary Ann born 1821[1,9]/1824[16,17], Bunwell, Co Norfolk,[9,17] died March quarter, 1867, Depwade district, Co Norfolk.[12] Daughter of Stephen (farmer & woodsman) & Sarah Grant.[9] Resided 1850, Redenhall, Co Norfolk.[69] Resided 1851, Bunwell, Co Norfolk - living with Mary's parents (Charles was missing and no trace of him can be found).[9] Resided 1861, By the Fen, Bunwell, [17] Forncett district, Co Norfolk.[16,17] Resided 1871, Forncett district, Co Norfolk.[13] Resided 1881, Bunwell, Co Norfolk (listed as Harell).[8]

A son was named Charles George} was likely the publican at the Crown from 1883-1897.

According to the 1881 census, Edmund was born in Skeyton, Co Norfolk. Skeyton is about 5km SE of Aylsham. No other known Hazell's have a Skeyton connection or were known to have been there around 1840. There was only one Edmund of a comparable age in the 1851 census and he died 1862, apparently unmarried. Edmund & Jemima were listed as Edward & Jane in the 1871 census. Living with them in 1871 was Sarah Hazel, born 1806, possibly Edward/Edmund's mother.

According to the IGI Dennis and his family were at "Witton near North Walsham".[3] This location is somewhat puzzling. The village of Witton is considerably to the south, abouty 1km west of Blofield. There is a village called "Witton Bridge" about 5km east of North Walsham. Witton Bridge does not, however, have a church - it is part of the parish of Ridlington, about 1km away. The IGI indicates the records came from the "Parish registers for Witton, near North Walsham, 1558-1917". This would appear to preclude Witton Bridge as being the location and instead Witton nr Blofield. This Witton is considerably closer to Norwich than to North Walsham, which only makes the whole thing even more confusing. This family group variously appears in records as Hazel (& variants) & Herrell (& variants) - whether this family are Hazel's or Herrell's is unknown. Herrell is sufficiently phonetically different to imply it is a different surname & most references are to Herrell.

Salhouse (or Salthouse as per the IGI) is fairly isolated from other Hazell occurances in Norfolk. It's on the far north coast of the county. There is no evidence to suggest a connection with other Norfolk Hazell's (or the lack of one for that matter). Mary appears in 1851 with an uncle/aunt born in Suffolk. It's possible her father was also from Suffolk. Alternatively, Haze's are not unknown in Salhouse, so it is possible that this is a Haze/Hays/Hase family and not Hazell's. A Samuel Hasel, s/o Samuel & Mary, was baptised 31/8/1817, Particular Baptist, Salhouse, Co Norfolk.[3] Was this a younger brother of William, who was likely born between 1800-1810, or was Samuel Sr William's brother?
