Any tips on finding these? I am looking for someone who is not at home on the 1871 census...not deceased as far as I can tell so thought he might be in prison, Shoreditch London area...any ideas? Thanks

Thanks Heather :) I had forgotten that !

Julie, for a change it's not one of mine lol..it is my friend's tree I am doing and she is hoping not to stun her mum too much with any black sheep ;) he may just be visiting elsewhere so am going through as many versions of 'Appleyard' as I can think of...the worst one so far was Sppleman !
