What do you do when you know someone has died but there is no death record.
Topsy Lucy Haste b.1881
Listed on 1881 census as 3 months, not on 1891 census or later.
Any ideas????

On the 1901 census Annie Haste has become Annie Hire, daughter of Elizabeth. Elizabeth's husband Henry Hire is aboard a ship. I wonder if Topsy Lucy also became a daughter of the Hires and married or died under that name?
