Bit of a mystery that I looked into on the Eaborns a while back.
We had family of Smiths in the 1881 Census a Thomas Smith and a Sarah smith age about 65ish
they were in Duddeston Aston at 98? bk of Dartmouth street
bear with me cos this is off top of me head
now living with them was a John Smith and Martha Smith
John b abt 1846 and Martha 1841
on a previous census this John was an Ebbon b Warwickshire
I bet he links to this lot.
but the odd thing was
why is that John Smith a John Ebbon /eaborn in 1871 1891 and 1901
and why cant we find John Eaborn b warks 1846 in 1851 census or indeed the 1861
then he marries Martha Tyler and we have him on following census
I seem to remember his father on the marriage certif was a John Ebbon polisher in the jewellery trade or similar
can anyone find these census and post so we can have a crack at this
Eaborn/Ebbon /Eburne cannot be a common name going back and they must all link up
I should perhaps post this in the general section but if I can link these Eaborns I will be adding them to the tree so might as well leave here
