missing in the 1871
« on: Wednesday 12 March 14 17:20 GMT (UK) »
I have found Francis Wardle born 1858 Lullington Derbyshire in the 1861 -RG.9.1962 his family on previous page.

I have found him on the 1881 RG11/3174 he is down as a Boarder.
I also found his sister Catherine 'lodging' in the 1871 RG 10/2907.

I have found his mother, in 1871 she is a housekeeper and widowed. Living in Lichfield (her birthplace  RG10/2907.
So the father dies somewhere between 1861 and 1871....
I have had a quick look for that death.

I know he went on to Marry Julia Lavinia/Lavernia Green c 1882 .

I have 1891 - 1901 - 1911 

So just wondering where a lad of 15 is all on his own in 1871.
A school somewhere maybe!?

anyhelp would be appreciated.

thanks

There's a Francis born 1857 on this 1871 Census, there is a surname but it is very hard to read :(
Francis age 14 b Derbyshire

RG10/3601/   8 p 7 Hartington Nether Quarter

Just looking at that entry I think it possibly says Francis Watson; it doesn't like it has enough loops for 'dle' on the end
