Emily and Fanny Boxall were Norrell

Friend Norrell and his wife Louisa (nee Boxall) [departed Plymouth]  13 Feb 1852 and arrived in South Australia [1 Jun 1852] on the ship Surge. Also on board was Henry Boxall, (who was the illegitimate son of Louisa) and his family. There was an outbreak of Typhoid on the ship at Plymouth (late 1851) and two of Friends children, (Friend and Frances) died. Another daughter, Jane died during the voyage to Australia. [Note: some passenger lists incorrectly show that Emily died at sea - Ed.]

Also Henry Boxall's two daughters, Ann and Rose succumbed to the sickness. [died in England in 1851].

Friend and Louisa's surviving children were: Caroline b.1829, Martha b.1831, Fanny b.1838, and Emily b.1841.

Henry Boxall and Ann had more children in Australia: Flora Alice b. 1853 (died 1853), Edwin b.1854 (died 1854), Emma Jane b.1855, William Henry b. 1857, Mary Alice b.1858, Arthur James b.1860 George Albert b. 1862 and James Edward b. 1864.

Less than a month after arriving in South Australia, Friend Norrell died. Louisa (nee Boxall) was left to raise the family with the help of her son, Henry Boxall.

I might guess because they were under the care of Henry Boxall, her son, that the confusion of Boxall and Norrell manifested.
