it's really very strange


I can only find Ephraim on the 1851 Census

I've found his purported father, and a couple of siblings on the 1841, still lviing in Clyffe Pypard

But no sign of an Ephraim


No sign of him on later censuses

No sign of a death registration for an Ephraim, except for that one in 1914.


No sign of an Ephraim being born between 1851 and 1914 to account for that death registration


There is the death of a Thomas Ephraim Sp*ckman, but nothing for an Ephraim as only forename.


and Ephraim does not seem to have had a second name that he could have decided to use.
