Hi,

I've managed to find quite a bit out on your Nappers. It seems that many of the children never married as I found their death record index as Napper.

Note that I've transcribed Ann/Anne Nappers name as they appear on various documents as I've done with his occupation. I've had a look at 1930 register of electors which came into force October 1930 so I assume the survey would have been done that summer.

The info I have is too much for one posting so I'll divide post up...

Thank you for the Register and the 51 census I didn't have that. Now I can track this family of Napper's from 1861-1901 and get a feel for their way of life. bparker

Hello bparker - I am also researching the Napper family from Pyrford.  My great grandmother was Blanche Napper - who was the youngest  (I think) child of John Napper, b 1804 Warnham, Sussex and  Napper, born 1810, Shere, Surrey.  Looks like they had 8 children in total.

Just wondered if you had managed to go any further back than this in your searches?
