John Angell was baptised on 20th February 1814 at King's Walden in Hertfordshire, son of Hannah and Joseph Angell, a labourer. The family lived at The Heath, a hamlet in the west of the parish adjoining the village of Breachwood Green.
On 16th July 1831, aged just seventeen, John married Sophia Marshall, who was originally from the neighbouring parish of Kimpton. They appear to have had eight children together between 1831 and 1851. The 1841 census finds them living at the hamlet of Diamond End in King's Walden parish with Sophia's father. They later moved around various villages in the area. Their first two children's births were recorded at the Coleman's Green Baptist Church in King's Walden. Most of their other children were baptised in 1848 and 1849 at Ayot St Lawrence. John worked as an agricultural labourer and shepherd.
In each census from 1861 onwards John and Sophia were living in the parish of Offley, living at the hamlet of Tea Green in 1861 and Mangrove in 1881.
John appears to have died in the Hitchin Union Workhouse in 1886, aged 72. He was buried in the churchyard back in Offley. Sophia survived him by less than a year.

It is presumed that the 'Harris Angell, son' must be a mishearing for their daughter Alice Angell, who was this age but not recorded, whereas there is no other sighting for a Harris Angell in this family.

Although Mary's age is clearly given as 2, this is presumed to be an error; she was 9. Her birth was registered in 1851 and in the 1871 census she was correctly described as being 19.
