Suffolk Surname
« on: Wednesday 28 January 04 02:16 GMT (UK) »
I'm looking for any CANHAMs ,  born in or around Occold in 1860s.  My Ggrandmother was Ruth Hannah, her Father was a Baptist Minister.  
Any help would be appreciated.

In the 1881 census there is a RUTH CANHAM born in Occold 1864.

She is aged 17years and working as a servant at
Earlham Road, Heigham, Norfolk, England. in the home of Nathaniel A & Fanny NEWCOME.

Geoff,

Thank you!  It looks like Ruth is the right one.  I wonder if the others are related to her.  I have no information about her family at all, since she was estranged from them.  My mother lived with her until Ruth's death, and she never mentioned any family at all.

Again, thank you very much,  I really appreciate your help.

 :-* Thank you so much! I haven't been looking for a while,  but this will get me started again.

Do you know if the 1871 census has been done?

Again, thank you. I hope one of these turns out to be the one I need.
