I've been trying to trace my family, especially my paternal grandfather's family, but have come across a problem with his father. On my great grandfather's wedding certificate, 8/4/1901 his surname is listed as Pleant, the name we use. But I can't find him on the 1901 census held the Sunday before his wedding. It seems that he (Ernest George) or his father, Charles, changed the original spelling which seems to be Plant. Charles was a soldier but that's all I know and in a 1881 census isn't listed with rest of family, wife Anne M., son Ernest George, and daughters Florence and Mary(?). They are listed as Plant's here, but by the time of the 1901 wedding it's Pleant. The eldest and youngest child were born in the Bromley area, but the middle child was born in Yorkshire, perhaps due to Charles' military connections. Don't know where to look next.
Surname with added letter!
