Trying to find Harrowell

Hi June,
I've just read your message and think that your Caroline Harrowell my also belong to my Harrowell family.
I've recently been looking at baptism records and found a baptism at Boxmoor Parish, Hemel Hempstead for Caroline. It gives her parents as Daniel and Mary Ann Harrowell. But suspect that they were in fact her Grandparents and that their son James was her father.
James' brother, Jonathan is my 3x Great grandfather.

I also found a baptism record for Caroline's son William Thomas. July 1871. Father given as Henry Wilson.

Caroline married William Harrowell . Probably her cousin. Havn't established who his parents were yet.

Caroline's daughter Jeanette Annie married Henry Burnett 1897 in Dartford.

My late husband was born in Dartford and his father also came from the same area, my father-in-law was born in 1896 and his fathers surname was Burnett, he was brought up by his mothers mother Caroline Harrowell, if anyone knows of any Burnetts or Harrowells in the Dartford area I would be pleased to hear from them, I know my father-in-law had a Cousin William Harrowell who was married to Lucy and lived in Carlisle Road Dartford.
