Well Badger a whole day and not a bit of new :(

I will keep a constant eye open for him - especially the trade directories.

Is there a census record for that grand house I mentioned?

I noticed in his death cert that he wa also listed as Domestic Servant so could be a possiblity, may even be household records?

Will try again tomorrow.

Thought of that.  Have heard from Sandringham who gave me Royal Archives e-mail, but it bounced back, so will send by post.

Checked the census ... still looking into that.  And have gotten BT.com HURN in the area of Thorpe Market.  Will write to see if anyone a rellie.  Did the same for HEARNE in Kent (none listed in Westerham).

Thanks so much, su ... appreciate all your help.

Hi Badger

One little thing I came across whilst doing the post office hunt.

1841 & 1851  ;)

Royal Mail apparantly have a very good archive center with records going back to 1719!

They have appointment books, with a central register for each employee. (Introduced in 1831).  (I'm hoping it may give up some personal details?)

http://www.royalmailgroup.com/heritage/dda/index.htm

I hope this brings you some luck.

Thanks for allowing me to take part.  I've not been very productive and created more work than answered questions!  But have really enjoyed it and shall keep my eyes peeled.

Let me know if you have any success please ;D

Good Luck  Su
