I can't find them in 1871 either.

This is Matilda living with your great grandfather in 1901:-

Help. I am trying to find the above in the 1871 census to confirm who his children were. I have found him in the 1861 and 1881 census but not 1871.The 1851 and 1861 census shows he was born in Tewkesbury but the 1881 census shows he was born at sea. He was married to Matilda who came from Tipton and they went to live in Bilston. He had a son called Andrew (my great grandfather) who was born about 1865.I think his father was also called Andrew and mother was Ann but i need to confirm that i am following the right track. If you can help me it would be much appreciated.Thanks. Karen
