Family Ancestors
A Memory of Old Hall Street.
Doing a bit of computer research looking at my mother's family and think I have traced back her father's family to the 1841 census, which shows her Great Great Grandfather, John Payne, living in Lakenham at what looks like Grove Place, Terry Street (census difficult to read). His occupation , again difficult to read, looks like "waiter" but his son, my mum's great grandad is listed as an apprentice brushmaker. Generations of the family then went on to be brushmakers. Was this a well-known trade in Lakenham at the time? Does anyone have any information about the Payne family - did they originate from Lakenham?
