Wow, Cherilyn, thanks for that.
Looks like the Sigismond disappearance is accounted for!

Thank you so much Chris and Sylvia - many apologies for lateness of reply, but work got in the way yesterday and I didn't get home till very late, just had the energy y to flop into bed.
The Australian marriage looks pretty likely doesn't it - I mean, how many Sigismond Myatts born around 1830 can there be!
Those newspaper clippings are really interesting, what a great find,
All that info is really appreciated, thanks again.

Thank you Sylvia, this is my last 'sighting' of him.
Sorry, yes he was living in Manchester 1841/51.
His wife is on 1861 census, alone but recorded as married, then 1871 as a widow,
Sig was born abt 1831, so I just wondered when the above marriage took place.
Thanks as always for your reply.

Sorry forgot to ask if Sigismund Myatt lived in England first as found above

Hi everyone.
Asking for a favour please!

I am trying to trace what happened to someone in my tree, namely a Sigismund Myatt, who seems to disappear after 1855.

I have come across the following, and wonder if someone might be kind enough to check it out for me?

Many thanks.
