They are probably hiding with some family member some where.lol The census was easy to replace, but it's the rest that is'ant. I will check what you sugest. Best wishes Gill

Thankyou Maid Marion, I do have them on census through to 1901, at some point between 1851-1861 the family moved to Woolwich, London. It's just i was foolish enough to give all the records to my MIL who has since died and yes I didn't save any copies,they are her mothers family. So now i have to start again, serves me right. Gill
