What are the occupations? who did you find in the 1891. Thing is, in those 10 years from 1871 some will have died?, some will have married - its unlikely you would find them as the same family group.

For instance, is this your Edward?

Heather and Michelle - those are the two I have found. I can't find Rosena or Thomas (although I think Rosena died later in 1871)

William - who on earlier census has been a Thomas, died 1886 - can't find on 1881

Eliza found on 1891 with Frederick

Henry - have found with wife

Edward - found with wife

John - can't find - he didn't marry till 1882

Abner ??

Frederick ??

Sarah and Alice ??

any help would be appreciated, these have had me stumped for a long time now

John born 1860 was an organ /pianoforte builder on 1891 / 1901 and his marriage in 1882. I thought that would be easy to search just using the occupation, but I still can't find him
