Disappearance

Given the zeal of 19th Century statisticians, it seems remarkable that some of the cohort just plain disappear from sight. The table below shows how many I have failed to find at consecutive census’. The jump in numbers for the ’21 Census is perhaps because I haven’t been able to locate burial records for the individuals.

1851 Census 4 females

1861 Census 6 female 3 males

1871 Census 7 female 4 males

1881 Census 1 female

1891 Census 1 female 1 male

1901 Census 1 male

1911 Census

1921 Census 19 female 26 males
