    Default Hicks Lyne Eales

    Hi All,

    Looking for Lyne ancestry, My family name was Hicks-Lyne, unsure of how this came to be. James Philip Hicks Lyne b. 1848 was GG, and last name was Lyne. My Grandfather was James Frederick Edward Eales Hicks-Lyne b1873., but dropped the "lyne' when coming to canada after ww1. (syblings did not drop Hicks-lyne)

    So, I cannot find how the 'Hicks' came to be and any Lyne relatives in UK.

    thx in advance for any help.
    James Hicks

    Welcome to Brit-Gen James
    As a starting point for anyone helping in the search this looks to be your grandfather and his wife in the 1911 English census. It says they have been married 11 years and have had one child who is still living but isn't at home with them on the night of the census.

    James Frederick Edward Eales Hicks Lyne 37 Law Clerk born Calcutta, India
    Phoebe Mary Hicks Lyne 34 Wife born Rotherham Yorkshire.

    They are living at Elmhurst, 29 Hamilton Rd, Golders Green Hendon N W.

    The 1881 census reveals where the Hicks name originated. Philip's wife Elizabeth was a Hicks prior to her marriage.
