BURRELL, WILLIAM, esq. of Broomepark, in the parish of Edlingham, in Northumberland, A.M. of University College, Oxford, F.S.A. b. 2nd October, 1773, m. 11th September, 1804, Eleanor, eldest daughter of Matthew Forster, esq. of Bolton House, in Edlingham parish, (by Jane, his wife, eldest daughter and heiress of Nicholas Browne, esq. of Bolton). Mr. Burrell has issue, BRYAN, of Bolton House, b. 23rd June, 1805, late a captain in the 4th royal Irish dragoon guards, in the commission of the peace, and a deputy lieutenant for Northumberland; m. 21st September, 1837, at Spittesbury, Dorset, Frances-Mary, only daughter of John Quantock, esq.* of Norton House, in the county of Somerset, the representative of one of the oldest families in that county. Matthew, b. 16th January, 1811, A. M. of the University of Oxford, in the commission of the peace for Northumberland. Mr. Burrell has been an acting justice of the peace for Northumberland since the 8th of October, 1801, and a deputy lieutenant since 1796; he was high sheriff in 1811. He succeeded to the family estates upon the death of his father, on the 3rd November, 1806. Lineage. The Burrells are of very ancient date upon the borders of England and Scotland, particularly in that district formerly known by the name of the East Marches; their names occur in various records of the times and in family muniments, as Boraille, Borell, Burwell, but now generally Burrell. On the 11th August, 9 RICHARD II. (A.D. 1385,) at Neubotilwode, (a place on the borders,) the king grants to his "leige Johannes Boraille de Tevydale," all the lands with the appurtenances which belonged to John Ker, in Altonburne and Neysebit, in Tevydale, and all the lands with the appurtenances which belonged to John de Aynslee and William Hessewell, in Doulfineston and Edeleshevid, in Tevydale aforesaid, and which on account of their adhering to the king's enemies of Scotland had been confiscated, to hold to the said John Boraille and his heirs for ever, without any payment. (2 Rot. Scot. 75.) In the same year, 9 RICHARD II. the same John Burrell and Johannes de Budthorpe, gave to Thomas Strother one half of West Newton, in the parish of Kirknewton. (Hodgson's MSS.) The Burrells, of the town or vill of Howtell, in the parish of Kirknewton, were an old family in this parish, and were the same as the Burrells of Milfield, in that parish, from whom Mr. Burrell is lineally descended; they both used the "Burrell porch," in Kirk newton church, as their common burial place. The town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, the chief town connected with East Marches, was the principal place of residence of the Burrells; and they have been found to be settled there so early as the year 1250. It is difficult, at this distance of time, to trace the connection between the family of Broome park and that of Lord Willoughby de Eresby, (whose surname is Burrell,) and Sir Charles Burrell, but that they are of the same lineage there can be little doubt. By Frances Herne, his wife, daughter of John Bettesworth, esq. of Carhayes, who was son of John Bettesworth, LL.D, by Frances, his wife, one of the two sisters and co-heirs of William Trevanion, of Carhays, in Cornwall, M.P. for Tregony, the other having married Admiral Bryon, the grandfather of Lord Bryon, the poet. John Trevanion Purnel Bettesworth Trevanion, the cousin of Mrs. Bryan Burrell, eldest son of John Bettesworth, took the name and arms of Trevanion, by sign manual in 1801, and is the present immediate representative of that ancient family, and possessor of Carhayes. (See vol. i. p. 253)., In Cuckfield church, in Kent, there are numerous monuments to the memory of the ancestors of Lord Willoughby, and upon the oldest of them is the following inscription: "Gerrard Burrell, D.D. Archdeacon and Residentiary of Chichester, settled at Cuckfield, 1146, died April, 1508. He was the youngest son of Sir John Burrell, of Devonshire, who attended Henry V. to France, 1415, with one ship, 20 men at armes, and 40 archers. His grandfather, Ralph Burrell, descended from an ancient family in Northumberland, married Sismonda, daughter and co-heir of Walter Woodland, in Devonshire." John Burrell, esq. was mayor of Berwick, 9th September, 1449. (Raine's North Durham Appx. No. 765.) John Burrell, esq. was mayor of the same borough, 25th September, 1551. (Berwick Records.)
