Hi
if the death entry you found for John Robert Lea in Kingston district is the right person, then this could be him on the 1841 census.
HO.107/1054/6 folio 26 page 56
Brixton Hill, Lambeth, Surrey
John Lee/62/independent/born out of county
Sarah Lee/63/born out of county

Hello Bee, many thanks for your search and reply.
I know the 1841 is very limited with it's details, so yes your John & Sarah Lee could very well be my Lea family.
Would it please be possible, to see if John & Sarah Lea's children are near by, or were they left in Hertfordshire somewhere?
3. Edmund Lea b. c. 6 Apr 1815 Broxbourne Herts.
4. Rosa Sarah Lea b. c. 8 Sept 1812 Broxbourne Herts.
Possible m. ?? Jun 1838 ref 14 13Cambridge (IGI) to Mathew Wilkinson?? So, Rosa Sarah could now be 'Wilkinson', living in Cambridge?
Thank you & kind regards,
Jed

Hi Jed
in the previous post where there is an * next to 'wid', I meant to explain that I think it says widow but the enumerators marks make it unclear.

Hi Jed... I can help you a bit with John Robert Lea as I am one of his descendants... (same surname, and my 3rd Christian name is Gillam, which was his son's 2nd name). I'm not a genealogical researcher, though a 2nd cousin of mine has done some work on the Lea ancestors - stumbled on your post through a Google post, triggered by visiting a long-lost cousin in the US. Anyway, the Lea family moved to Sussex where my great grandfather (Edmund Gillam Lea, also the names of my grandfather and father) owned a flour mill and lived in the village of Hamsey near Lewes. He would have been the Edmund Gillam Lea who was aged 9 on the 1851 census; my grandfather used to recite the grim little rhyme, "E. G. Lea of Chobham Surrey / Took a fit and died in a hurry". He can't have died in so much of a hurry, though, because he had 2 wives and at least 10 children. There was a large family of my grandfather's generation, most of them baptised in the parish church at Lewes. They are curiously absent from the 1901 census, though - I've looked for them and can find hardly any. My grandfather and one of my great uncles ("Uncle Claire", actually I believe another John Robert Clairemont; he was a sniper in WW1 and lost a leg) used to talk about "Captain Lea" who had "dined with Nelson every Sunday". What in particular did you want to know? And are you also related to him?
