Hi Gerry, yes I was just getting to the fact that it did tie in to the 1861 family I found, he was probably off with friends or family.

Hi.
He is down as Elvin on the 1891 and 1901 census, but marriage is Edward Parkin!!
I was hopeful for his parents on the earlier census, but thanks for looking.

No sign of Elvin on the 1861 do you know parents names, perhaps it was a pet/nick name?
