Hi All,
I have lost a family between the England census' of 1881 and 1891.
1881 Census
Charles Henry Hammer 38 Elizabeth Hammer 35 Harold Augustus Hammer 1 Lilian Althea Hammer 5 Percy Adolphus James Hammer 13
Born St. Austell, Cornwall, England Presently located, St. Ive, Cornwall, England. Occupation: School master.
Can only find Percy Hammer in the 1891 census - newly married. None of the rest of the family are there.
Could they have emigrated somewhere??? How do I find out??
Thanks everyone for your advice.

There's a death for Charles Henry Hammer in Plymouth in 1894, aged 51 - could be yours?
I think Lilian Althea is the Lily A. Hammer aged 15 who is at a "Ladies College" in Devon in 1891 (you'll find her at freecen.rootsweb.com).
There is a possiblity at www.findmypast.com - in 1897, both L. Hammer, 21 (female) and H. Hammer, 17 (male) seem to have left for South Africa.
http://www.national.archsrch.gov.za/sm300cv/smws/sm300dl - if you go here, and search under "RSA" for Harold and Hammer, you will get a hit for estate papers of Harold Augustus Hammer in 1940. If you search for Lilian and Hammer, there is a "Mortgage Bond" for William Michie and Lilian Alethea Hammer in 1903.
http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/SOUTH-AFRICA-IMMIGRANTS-BRITISH/2003-09/1063540587 - and a mention here of a marriage, Frederick George Hammer to Lilian Alethea Hammer in 1897! If you search above for him, there's also a mention of a death notice for Frederick George in 1903, and something about the mortgage with William Michie in 1903 with his name on it as well (perhaps after he died Lilian had to transfer the mortgage into her name?)

Thanks for all that information - rootschat members never cease to amaze me with their wealth of information and promptness.
Lazarus. I am a decendant of Richard Hammer, born approx 1822 to John and Elizabeth Hammer.
He married Maria/Mary Tonkin?? before 1841 (census data) and emmigrated to Victoria, Australia in 1856.

Sorry for the late reply Lazarus,
Richard and Maria did indeed have all those children. Their daughter Christianna married Thomas William Johnson and became my gg grandmother on my mothers side. They settled and spent their life in Ballarat, Victoria.
Feel free to have a look at my family tree at;

Sorry lazarus, have only discovered Richard Hammer and family, and so haven't delved into his greater family tree.
Goodluck though.
