Please may I have a lookup in the Electoral Rolls for the years 1871 to 1877 inclusive for my elusive ggrandfather. Here is a brief synopsis"
Henry (James) HART b. Brighton 1853 moved to Oldham between 1871 and 1874. For some unknown reason he changed his name to Henry HAYDEN. His first child, Henry James HAYDEN was born in Oldham, 1874. by 1877 he had moved to Shoreditch.
three of his children had the surname HAYDEN and one HART.
If I can find our *when* his name changed, perhaps I could find out *why*.
I hope this post is appropriate.
