This does happen from time to time, possibly there were away travelling and just got missed! Or hiding from the rent man?? But they might simply be mis-transcribed and you are having trouble finding them. |

well the obvious thing is a Mistranscription so you have to use wild cards and think outside the box. |

Jan is right. My grandfather is missing from the 1911, probably out poaching that night knowing him! |

This is the Ancestry entry!! Tip - always try a first name/birth year/location search if people are missing, then look down the list of results for possible mis-transcriptions. |
