I am trying to find a John Edward Sindall born 1851, Boston, Lincs. He is on the 1871 census aged 21. He does not appear to be on the 1881 or 1901 census. I have found a death of a john Edward Sindall in 1888 aged 33 (Woolwich)but that would not be his correct age, but I cannot find this john on the 1881 census either. Has anyone got any suggestions what I can do next. Vanessa

Hi Zoe Yes that's who I thought they were in 1871 aswell. In 1881 the mother is mis-transcribed as Ann Lindell and the brother is mis-transcribed as Charles Tindall But no sigh of John as far as I could see. Esta x

Esta, Zoe has found the correct family, I know that Charles the father died in 1879 and Charles Henry married in 1879, Sarah lived until 1898, but John Edward seems to have disappeared. Thanks for all your help it is very much appreciated, Vanessa

I've also exhausted every way of searching I can think of in 1881 and come up with nothing
