  Notes	1871 census: in Overbury Hall Road, Layham, Suffolk (all HYNARD), John (head, 35, steam engine driver, born Layham, Suffolk), Harriet (wife, 31, born Layham, Suffolk), Eva Alice (daughter, 5, scholar, born Layham, Suffolk), Agnes Ann (daughter, 3, born Layham, Suffolk) and Emma E (6 months, born Layham, Suffolk). 1881 census: in Greenstead Road, Colchester (all HYNARD), John (head, 45, engine driver, born Langham*, Suffolk), Harriet (wife, 41, born Langham, Suffolk), Agnes A (daughter, 13, born Langham, Suffolk), Emma E (10, scholar, born Langham, Suffolk), George A (son, 8, scholar, born Langham, Suffolk) and Alice E (daughter, 2, born Greenstead, Colchester). * all 1881 references to Langham should say Layham (see 1871). 1891 census: at 114 Greenstead Road, Colchester (all HYNARD), John (head, 54, portable engine driver, born Layham, Suffolk), Harriett (wife, 51, born Layham, Suffolk), Emma (20, tailoress, born Layham, Suffolk), George (son, 18, brass moulder, born Layham, Suffolk), Alice (daughter, 12, scholar, born Colchester) and Lilley (granddaughter, 4, born Colchester). 1901 census: at 114 Greenstead Road, Colchester (both HYNARD), John (head, 58*, stationary engine driver, born Layham, Suffolk) and Harriett (wife, 57*, born Layham, Suffolk). * these ages are clearly wrong. John died before the next census. 1911 census: at 31 Beche Road, Colchester (6 rooms), Walter John SALMON (head, 45, married, compositor, born Colchester), Eva Alice SALMON (wife, 43, married 20 years, no children, born Layham, Suffolk) and Harriett HYNARD (mother-in-law, 71, 5 children all living, born Layham, Suffolk). THE THREE CENSUS ENTRIES BELOW BELONG TO A DIFFERENT JOHN HYNARD. Kept here for possible future reference. 1891 census: in Oddfellow Terrace, Layham, Suffolk (all HYNARD), John (head, 55, agricultural labourer, born Layham, Suffolk), [no forename] (wife, 49, born Hadleigh, Suffolk), Arthur (son, 20, agricultural labourer, born Layham, Suffolk), James (son, 18, agricultural labourer, born Layham, Suffolk), Albert E (son, 13, agricultural labourer, born Layham, Suffolk) and Kate E (daughter, 9, scholar, born Layham, Suffolk). 1901 census: the following almost certainly refers to this John Hynard but there is something odd about (a) John's stated birthplace and (b) his wife's first name (which wasn't stated at all in 1891). In Hill Cottage, Layham, Suffolk (all HYNARD), John (head, married, 65, ordinary agricultural labourer, born Raydon, Suffolk), Kerenhappuck (wife, married, 59, born Hadleigh, Suffolk), Albert E (son, 23, ordinary agricultural labourer, born Layham, Suffolk) and Kate E (daughter, 19, born Layham, Suffolk). 1911 census: in Upper Layham near Hadleigh, Suffolk (3 rooms) (all HYNARD, all born Layham), Albert Edward (head, 34, married, farm labourer), Sarah Ann Jane (wife, 34, married 5 years, no children) and John (father, 75, widowr, retired farm labourer)
