==Early life==
Thomas Russell was born in County Cork, Ireland, probably in 1830. His parents were Thomas Flower Russell (c. 1808-1873) and Mary Roberts (c. 1811-1847).〔'Deaths', ''New Zealander'' (6 November 1847), p. 2.〕 The family emigrated to Australia as steerage passengers in 1833, and settled in Maitland, New South Wales, where his father farmed. In 1840 the family moved on to New Zealand, living in Kororakea at first, then Auckland where his father worked as a builder. From 1844 Thomas Russell was articled to the lawyer Thomas Outhwaite and on 4 November 1851 was admitted as a solicitor on the roll of the Supreme Court of New Zealand.〔''New Zealander'' (6 December 1851), p. 2.〕 On 18 July 1854 he married Emeline Vercoe, third daughter of Henry Vercoe JP and niece of Walter Lawrie, the general superintendent of the Wesleyan church in New Zealand.〔''Daily Southern Cross'', (18 July 1854), p. 2.〕
