SHARP - FARRELL - PAYNE - CANHAM
I am researching the following branch on behalf of a friend.
There are several brick walls so if you have any information which can
help we would be very greatful.
The starting point is the marriage of

Drury Lane London son of Benjamin William SHARP,
(bn Mar 1882 Strand and Jane Maria FARRELL bn Dec Qtr 1878 Strand London
Charles Marr Gertrude Elizabeth PAYNE bn 20 May 1912

a laundress of 19 Bayham Rd St Pancras. Birth registered 5 June 1912, mother

The SHARP / FARRELL lines are below but the CANHAM / PAYNE lines
are almost a non-starter.
