We should start a new thread for 1861 Census lost rellies Lunar. I have another one I have been looking for 9 months. :-(

Hi Zoe, Sorry to take so long to reply, had a crisis call from my mother, freezer on blink!! He married his wife in Bristol 1867.

Do you know when & where he married his wife? Zoe

Yvonne, I expect he's run off with my Aaron Osborn, he's missing from the 1861(Devon / Glamorgan).

nudge

Maybe he took a trip out to the sun Most inconsiderate if you ask me, I am trying to find out how he met his wife and married her in Bristol. Thanks for your help anyway. Yvonne

The three brother's I have from 1871 onwards are Charles; James; Henry They were in the early days all into fish or fruit. Later they were all fruit merchants I don't know if this helps, but I just can't find Henry in 1861. He changes his birthplace in the censuses 1851 langton dorset 1871 chickard dorset 1881 North Woton 1891 Dorset The other's have changed theirs a lot too. Obviously didn't think it mattered at the time :-)

Yvonne I cant see him in England or Wales in 1861 he must be hiding. Georgina.
