DURHAM
FAMILY HISTORY THE DURHAMS IN LAMBETH, SURREY |
||||||||||||
● of William Durham I’s 6 sons, 3 went to live in Lambeth (William II,
Jacob I, Richard I) – 1 stayed in
the Watford area (Joseph I), and there is no record of the other 2 (John I,
James I – perhaps they died young) – so either these 3 moved to Lambeth as a starting
point as part of a migration trend towards the city, or, as the Durhams cannot be proved to be a Hertfordshire family in
the first place, perhaps they originally came from the Lambeth area, and
simply moved back to their ancestral area ● certainly, whether or not the Durhams were a Hertfordshire family to begin with, they
did not leave much trace there! |

CONCLUSION |
William II seems to have lived in Lambeth for the rest of his
life – his only Durham descent disappears after the 1891 census, but his
female descent continued to live in the area |
after Jacob II left Lambeth and moved into the pub
business in southeast London/Kent, his numerous descent never seem to have
lived in Lambeth again |
Richard I’s family all disappear after the 1851/61 census |
|||||||||
NOTES: ● so Asylum Place and Meads Row
seem to be the same address ● Asylum Place is no longer on the
map, but there is still a Mead Row, in an area where there was once an asylum ● an 1870’s Ordnance Survey map
shows that Asylum Place was roughly half way along Mead Row, on the east side ● the name Asylum Place seems to
have disappeared from the map by the end of the 19th century ● the area once occupied by Asylum
Place is now covered by modern buildings ● New Cut, now called The Cut, and Lower Marsh
are still there, and are parts of the same geographical road ● Asylum Place/Meads Row and New Cut/Lower
Marsh are not particularly near each other ● * as the insurance document does not
give the first name, it could be for either Jacob or Richard |
