Thanks Chris - that's the family in 1861 !! (I have posted previously about this family).

Thanks too, Nyx, that is certainly a most likely reason why I cannot find him! Will order it one day just to prove it either way.

Thanks again to both of you.

Looking for Henry John Finch b1840, in 1861 census (also 1881 onwards too !).

His parents are Henry John Finch & Margaret Finnegan.

I have him with family in 1851, and as a lodger in 1871 as a Coffin Maker !!

Where is he in 1861 and after 1881?
