I am looking for information and family connections to William H. Lye, b. abt 1834, London, Middlesex.
In 1881 he is in the 1881 British Census with the following information:
William H. Lye, 47, London, Middlesex, WatchcaseJointFitter
Elizabeth, 42, London, Middlesex
William H., 8, London, Middlesex
Florance M., 7, London, Middlesex
Ada E., 3, Coventry, Warwickshire
Sydney H., , Coventry, Warwickshire
Address: 23 Spon End, Coventry, St. Michael, Warwickshire.
William and Elizabeth are my g-g-grandparents through Sydney H. Lye. Sydney moved to Canada and died in Vancouver in 1959.
The family has always heard that the 2 daughters stayed in England and never married and that the William H. moved to Australia and became a minister or priest. Any assistance would be appreciated.
