Note: her middle name was possibly Pearson after her mother's maiden name, or she may have been named after her mother's sister Jane Payne, a widow who was living with the family in 1861, but this is not known for certain. We previously had no idea of her existence until I found the 1881 census data on line. So far I don't know anything else about her. She apparently was born shortly before or after her father's death at sea in 1866 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ 1881 English Census, Monkwearmouth Shore,Sunderland, Durham, England Ecclesiatical Paris of St Cuthbert address: Howick Street Eliza Hammond, head, mother, age 54, widow, born in Hetton, Durham, England, occ: confectioner, Charles E.P. Hammond, son, unmarried, age 23, born in Monkwearmouth, Durham, England, occ: telegraph clerk (serv) Jane P. Hammond, daughter, unmarried, age 14, born in Monkwearmouth, Durham, England, occ: teacher board school Source Information: Dwelling Howick St (Note: The LDS transription gives house # 40 but there is no such indication on the original sheet) Census Place Monkwearmouth Shore, Durham, England Family History Library Film 1342205 Public Records Office Reference RG11 Piece / Folio 5006 / 115 Page Number 3 (ancestry.com image #3 of 105) this census was our first clue about Jane P. Hammond. Elizabeth's age corresponds to the date of birth we had, and the son's name, Charles E. P., and his occupation assures us that this was the correct family. I am guessing that the initial letter "P" in their names stood for Pearson the mother's maiden name -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------
