Hi Julie Many thanks for the time and trouble to search out my missing William. I think you may be correct in that he may be the last entry you gave where he died at 22. Once again I appreciated the time you have given. Thanks Paul

Hi, I have a William Davison born 1858 in Chepstow, Monmouthshire shown on the 1871 living with his parents Joshua & Elizabeth Davison and his brother John. Census Source RG10; Piece: 706; Folio: 117; Page: 25 aged 13 I can trace John through to 1901 census but cannot find William on the 1881 or later census. Any help would be most appreciated. Bye Paul
