Where can I find early Western Australia records?
I am researching my ancestor, Frances Turrell/Tourle/Tomele/Fouler (KZQ7-T54). The first record I can find of her in Australia is in 1846 when she is married in Perth. I also have an adult baptismal record in 1850, and the birth of her children in 1847 and 1853. I cannot locate a death record in Australia. I have also searched Trove newspapers for information on her but can only find information on her husband and children. Her parents are Samuel Tourel and Philadelphia Verrell (source of names from her sons baptismal record). I cannot find her parents in any records in Western Australia. I am trying to find out where Frances came from and if her parents also immigrated to Australia with her. What other early Western Australia records can I search to find more information on the Turrell/Tourel family?

I located a marriage record for Philadelphia Verrall and Samuel Tourle 20 April 1820 All Saints Lewes, Sussex, England on the England, Select Marriage 1538-1973.
Also a Philadelphia Verrall was born 9 April 1797 christened 31 March 1799 Falmer Sussex parents Richard Verrall and Martha in the England Births and Christenings 1538-1975.
Somewhere to check.
best wishes with your research
