Hi,
I am trying to find Ezra Frank Peckham and his family in the 1901 census. Ezra was born in 1899 in Sevenoaks. I know he was alive as he died in 1920 in Dartford aged 20.
He was son of Robert and Elizabeth Harriet (nee Dunster). They were originally known as Worsley and at some point changed their name to Peckham - we do not know why and are trying to find out. It must have been between my husband's great grandfather Frederick Charles Peckham (originally Worsley on his birth certificate) born in Cranbrook in 1890 and Ezra Frank Peckham (originally Peckham) born in Sevenoaks in 1899. Both certificates give their father's first name as Robert and their mother as Elizabeth Harriett (formerly Dunster).
In 1891 they were listed as Wardsley and were living in Tenterden:
Robert 28 coachman and gardener b. Tenterden, Kent
Elizabeth h 29 wife b. Same as above
George a 6
Arthur e 4 b. Goudhurst, Kent
Florence m 2
Frederick c 5m
In 1911 Ezra was listed as Ezrey Peckham and was living in a seperate house to his father with his older brother George Peckham and his wife Ellen.
Any help greatly appreciated as I have tried very hard but keep getting nothing!
