Title: Edward Ainsworth of Shifnal
Post by: nedroma on Friday 27 May 05 17:24 BST (UK)
Edward was born in Stepney in 1863 but moved to Shifnal sometime between 1865 and 1870 with his parents Charles and Sophia

He's in Shifnal for the 1871 Census and at Whittington Barracks aged 18 and a Private in the 38th Regiment in the 1881 census.

After that the trail goes cold. No mention in the 1891 or 1901 censuses.

Anybody recognise him or have any further details?
