Hi Frek and Ricky
The Amon family you list for 1871 totally dumbfounded me, as a possible surname alternative to Almond.  My ancestor was born in 1849 to Caroline Almond, who married that same year; William Eldridge, and was listed as his son; Jonathan Eldridge, (age: 1) in the 1851 Census.  There were older siblings - so there may have been a previous marriage which I hope to find.
Another occurence of the name, spelled "Amon" refers to the wife of another ancestor, so I shall consider both spellings in future.

Not sure if it is of any significance but there is a marriage registered at Rye in Dec qtr 1860 in which two of the four names listed are John AMON and Lucy Ellen TERRY.

EDIT

The other two names for the marriage were Albert BARHAM and Fanny AKEHURST,  who were together in 1861 with his parents in Tenterden, Kent.

So John AMON married Lucy Ellen TERRY.

Elinor/Elenor Lucy TERRY birth Dec qtr 1840 Rye - baptised at Rye 23 Dec 1840, submitted entry on IGI.

John AMON birth Dec qtr 1838 Rye - baptised at Playden 30 Dec 1838 according to IGI. Playden is in Rye RD

Ages and birthplaces fit with the census details.

Just a thought.
