Thank you both for taking the time to help.

hartlepool945. I am afraid I do not think this is a match as my William moved on to Leicestershire, then ended his days in London, but thank you for taking the time to reply.

Margaret: Thank you I need to check my notes, as I have discounted a family in Great Yarmouth, through the census. I need to double check this info, to see if this corresponds to your information. William give his birthplace as Haddon, which I think is more inland, but of course Great Yarmouth could be the local district.

Thank you ..... Mandy

Update:

I believe I have now found William's parents Joseph Youell b.1780 and Sarah Easter b.1770. This would mean that William was actually born in 1807, all other info I have found fits with this familes movements.

I have also been lucky enough to find a photo of his parents graves through the gravestone photo project.
.
I have found his siblings and am in the process of following their families.

Sarah Youell 1797
Esther Youell 1798
George Youell 1801
Ann Youell 1803
Joseph Youell 1805
James Youell 1809
Henry Youell 1813
All born in the Stockton/Hales area of Norfolk

I just thought I'd update my post for any fellow researchers, who maybe researching the same branch of this family.

PS maybe confusing as have changed GR name.
