I have been looking for a family in the 1841 census, I have their place of births and dates but cannot find them. The birth dates are between 1825 and 1840. All the births were registered in ONGAR, Essex, as were the children that followed after this census, but were all born in Navestock, Essex

They are:-

WILLIAM PURNELL
THOMAS PURNELL
JOSEPH PURNELL
STEPHEN PURNELL
WALTER PURNELL
ELLEN PURNELL

I have them in 1851, when they are living with William and his wife and children, so I assume that the parents have died.

I have tried various spellings of the name, looked at Henham, which is near to where they are in 1851, but no luck.

Another pair of, less than tired, eyes would be very much appreciated.
