Hi, i've tried looking for the family on the 1901 census but with no joy...Hanworth Edmund Burr Rackham born Norwich 1856, his wife was Lucy Jane born Devon 1869 and their children were John Hanworth born Norfolk 1893 and Helen Marjorie born Norwich 1891.
Here they are in the 1891 census:
RACKHAM, Hanworth E B Head Married M 34 Solicitor Catton Norfolk
RACKHAM, Lucy J Wife Married F 22 Croyde Devonshire
RACKHAM Daughter F 0 (UNDER1M) Blofield Norfolk
KIR, Laura J Mother In Law Married F 57 Maldon Essex
Address: Ferniehurst, Blofield Street, Blofield


She thinks they should be in Norfolk or London in the 1901 census. They were originally from Norwich, but ended up in Wimbledon, London, later in life.
If you can't find them in Norfolk or London, would it be possible to do a blanket search on Hanworth? As it's an unusual name there shouldn't be too many entries.


Thank you

I've done a blanket search for Hanworth and a Hanworth Rackham comes up in Swindon, Wilts.

Don't think he's your man though as this one is a priest.......lol

Will keep looking.
