You have added to a very old thread. Click on Jackie’s name and send her a pm as she is unlikely to spot your post.

If she has kept her contact details up to date Genes will notify her.

I've been doing a bit of Hoy research and I think Emmaline may have used the surname Bell as a decoy to lose her estranged husband ,poor old Benjamin ,as they seem to have gone their separate way inbetween 1881 and 1891 and he's living in (what looks like) a boarding house in London in the 1891 census and she's down in leafy Farnham "Living by her own means"

Well done both of you! I suspect she used a different name, Benjamin states he's single in 1891.

Choccy, how do I go back to using the old Ancestry please?

Please could anyone find this family on the 1891 and 1901? This is them on the 1881 census. Emmeline died in 1904, I don't know about Benjamin. They could be anywhere because they moved around but quite likely in Hampshire.

Thank you for looking
