Missing in 1861 and 1881!

Job Harrison, b 15 Nov 1831 Wainfleet, Lincs, baptised 8 July 1838 Willoughby, Lincs, was the natural son of Charles Harrison (1810-1900, born Sloothby) and Mary Henry. In 1841 and 1851 he is living in Sloothby with his grandparents Charles and Mary Harrison. His father Charles meanwhile married Susanna (Susan) Lowe 15 May 1843 at Rigsby with Ailby, and had 2 sons, Frederick and Eardley.

I have found Job in 1871 living in Croft Bank, Lincs aged 39, gardener, with wife Mary 38, also born Wainfleet, and 5 children. In 1891 he is widowed, aged 56, still living at Croft Bank with his daughter Mary 20. But I can't find him in either 1861 or 1881. Can anyone help me track him down please? Thanks.

Yup, that's the one I found too! But how can he just vanish in 1861 and 1881? And FreeBMD doesn't have either a marriage or a death either. he's elusive, this one!

Found him on FreeBMD as Job Harrison Orrey, marriage and death. So maybe his mother wasn't Mary Henry but Mary Orrey??? Orrey could easily be read as Henry I imagine.

Many thanks both of you - much appreciated and mystery now solved. Well, more or less! Now to track his mother!
