On March 5 1753, Thomas Ensor and Chris Drivers were named as sureties in the additonal account of Henry Brereton, admisistrator of Thomas Brereton, late of Baltimore County.  the last record of Tlhomas Ensor may be found in St. Paul's Parrish, where as a "Mr. Thomas Ensor Jr." is shown as a warden (lay leader) of the parrish in 1754 and 1755.  If this was the same Thomas Ensor it could indicate his father was also named Thomas Ensor.

Edensor is a village in Derbyshire, England.  Although it is thought that this is where the name originated from, there was a large amount of Ensor's in Warwickshire and Derbyshire and Staffordshire. I was told the name originated in Staffordshire. I do not know if this is true. The name is NOT a common one in England now.
