i found your msg when surfing have never used a site like this so apologies for any errors. We may be distant cousins.  Hammond was my grandfathers older brother. My grandfather was also a saddler and harness maker born in Goudhurst and his parents were James and Francis N (as her maiden name was norrington) Hammond had siblings called Harry,Sydney, Nellie (died17) and I am told Harrold although that sounds strange if there was already Harry. Hammond married Nellie I suppose this could be Ellen.  I was told that Hammomd was known as the black sheep of the family and emigrated to Canada.  I have not checked any of this on the census this info from my dad and aunt, his nephew and niece. I also have photos so would be interested to see yours.
