Lesley, The Census doesn't necessarily give us the home address. On Census night you were recorded as where you slept that night. Maybe they were away on holiday at Aunty Mabel's that night. If they were at the same address over the thirty years you could still maybe find that address on the missing census and see who is living there, if anybody? Good luck Jim :-) |
