"Leonard Edwin" was admitted to Chester College School on 19 October 1909, previous school being declared as "Helsby Church". He left the Chester school on 25 June 1915 with the comment "Clerk - accountants'"
In 1911 Ezra John and Annie were living in the Chester district with their children Sydney, Minnie, Gladys, Edwin Leonard, Ronald and Reginald.
In 1921 Edwin Leonard was employed by W.H. Jones and Co., Accountants of 25 Lord St., Liverpool.
Edwin Leonard emigrated to Australia, along with his brother Ronald Ezra.
Edwin Leonard returned to the UK and died in Cheshire in 1980.
Edwin Leonard landed at Southampton from Brisbane, Australia, occupation "Fruiterer", and was the only CHRIMES who landed, so I presume that he returned as a bachelor.
Edwin Leonard appears on the Australian Electoral Rolls in Melbourne in 1936, 1937 and 1943.
From The Chester Chronicle of 31 October 1980: "Latest Wills MR. EDWIN LEONARD CHRIMES of Ruhamah, Hare Lane, Pipers Ash, Guilden Sutton, who died on April 12, intestate, left estate valued at £7,493 gross, £7,207 net. Letters of Administration have been granted to Gladys I. Chrimes, of Ruhamah."
