Ann Hurl was born on 4th May 1847 to Henry and Amelia (nee Gregory), the third of their nine children. She was baptised at East Boldre church on 14th December 1851, along with her older sisters Eliza (6) and Harriet (8); their father Henry worked as a labourer. 

The 1851 census shows the family living in Beaulieu Rails (E Boldre).

The 1861 census shows that 13-year-old Ann had left home and was a house maid to the Brannon family at 12 Portland Terrace, Southampton​ (right).

​In 1867, aged 20, Ann married George Young (22) from Fawley who was an agricultural labourer at the time. The couple had two daughters Amelia (b. 1867) and Eliza (b. 1870).

Amelia was baptised at East Boldre church on August 4th 1869. Her baptismal record gives her father George's occupation as a sailor.

The 1871 census shows Ann, Amelia and Eliza living with Henry and Amelia Hurl in Beaulieu Rails (E Boldre), George possibly being away at sea.

Amelia died the following year aged 5 and was buried at the chapel by the Rev John Bartlett Burt on 12th May 1872.

Jane died as a young mother and was buried at the chapel by the Rev Burt on 20th February 1876.

A 1877 newspaper reports that George Young and his father-in-law Henry Hurl were maliciously stabbed one Saturday evening in Beaulieu Rails by George Pickett.
