Hi Fiona,

Can you post him in earlier census for reference please?

I'm seeing a few and I'm not sure if they're your man or the cousins.

I don't have any of the three in 1871. Would welcome fresh eyes as sometimes when I get stuck I can miss the obvious!

This one (son of William and Eliza) was in Evercreech for 1841, 1851 and 1861, as an ag labourer. We think he then reappears as a road labourer in Wales for 1881 and 1891 (as per this thread).

Another (son of James and Elizabeth, then James and step-mother Ann) was in Evercreech for 1841, 1851 then as a ship's carpenter away in the Navy in 1861. He married Susan Davis in 1864 and I lose them then. Not sure if they are mistranscibed, dead or emigrated.

The last cousin (son of Stephen and Maria/Mary) was in Evercreech in 1841 and 1851 then missing. We think he is the one that died in Queensland, Australia, due to matching parents names on his death certificate, even though he lists a different place of birth and father's occupation. We don't have a year for emigration, but he married in 1865 in Australia so on or before then, so not on 1871 and later census, but maybe on 1861. IF it is actually him????

So finding any in 1871 or later would be great!

Thanks,

Fiona
