reg that looks promising i suppose if he came from ireland his father being a farmer makes sense plus edward nugent his son joined the royal dublin fusiliers so that might be the irish connection but i cant find out what happened to him he has disappeared off the face of the earth

Jane is down as married in 1891 (a silk weaver).
Perhaps John was away, possibly visiting family in Ireland at the time of the census. Could he have died in Ireland?

Carter

Carter Report 2 Oct 2007 18:06

no idea i hope not i would love to find out what happened to him

Another thought - if he was a coal miner he could have been on night shift and not listed at his home. No idea how you would find this out though

so if anyone was on night shift then they wouldnt have been on any census - i didnt realise that
