  Born	27 Oct 1843
  	Date from baptism register. There seems to be no birth registration of a Henry Spurrell in 1843.
  Baptised	31 Dec 1843	St. James’ Church, Clerkenwell, London, England
  	From PR entry (image on Ancestry, viewed 28 Nov 2014) "[1843 Decr] 31 No. 3080 Henry Thomas, parents: Richard Blanchard + Mary, Spurrell, abode: 16 Kings Terrace, father's occupation: Law Clerk, ceremony performed by: W Harker (born 27 Octr 1843)"
  Gender	Male
  Apprenticeship	1861	Beerferris, Devon, England
  	Tailor, to Samuel Spurrell
  	At the time of the 1861 census Henry was apprenticed to his father's cousin Samuel. The most common age to be an apprentice was 14 to 21, so Henry had probably just about finished his time as an apprentice when his cousin and master, Samuel, was admitted to the County Lunatic Asylum where he died some 4 years later.
  Occupation	From 1871 to 1881	Pepper Street, Bere Alston, Devon, England

  	Draper

  Lunacy	14 Apr 1910 to 1 Oct 1913	Plymouth Borough Lunatic Asylum, Moorhaven, Ugborough, Devon, England
  	Admission - Discharge
  	The admissions register shows: No. in order of Admission: 14562; Name: Spurrell - Hy; a male pauper patient; Date of Admission. [1910] 14 [Ap]; Asylum: Plym'th; Date of Discharge or Death: 1 Oct 13; Discharged Recov[ere]d. Information about the Asylum It seems a bit of a coincidence that he and Samuel to whom he had been apprenticed both spent time in lunatic asylums. Was there something about their environment that led to this?
