Dorset Lookup Requests / Peckhams of Parley and Wimborne
« on: Sunday 15 December 13 10:17 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
I was surprised to find my maternal great grandfather, William Harman, from Charlwood, Surrey, living with my great aunt Mary Jane Harman in the 1911 census, living in Wimborne Minster. Mary Jane was born in Surrey, as was my grandmother, and married Ernest Peckham from East Parley. The census shows they had four children William, John, Ethel and Edley. I cannot, beyond this record, find anything about the Peckhams and was hoping to find out anything more about them, where the children ended up, etc. Any leads would be greatly appreciated! I now live in Dorset and was very surprised to find this connection so 'close to home.' thanks all! Aine'
