I've searched BMD and individual quarters on Ancestry for the birth but there is nothing under Tyrrell or variations on spelling. I've just found a birth entry on BMD for a Jane TERRELL in December 1861 in Melksham, Wilts. Is Melksham near Trowbridge? Is it likely that this is my Jane? If so, I didn't think they made spelling mistakes in such important registers! I will probably send for the certificate but wanted your opinions first! Many thanks.
