Robert Bydder of Mumbles, Sea Captain born 1830

[Teddytwinkles]

Hello....
Is there anyone out there tracing Bydders of Oystermouth, Newton, Mumbles😊

My 3rd GGF Robert Bydder was a mariner/Sea Captain....I have his birth and census until 1881 where he is 51 and living at Bank Cottage, Mumbles

But then nothing.....I cannot find an 1891 census for family or a record of death, nor marriage record to his wife Elizabeth Davis🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

If there is anyone out there also searching, please get in touch. I have managed to trace to my 6th GGF Thomas Bidder born abt 1730 in Oystermouth.
Thankyou

Yes I have this one thankyou

I've found census 1841 to 1881 for Robert but no marriage or death records...

I noticed on old posts a lady was searching Bydders of Mumbles for her husband....here's hoping she sees this 😉😉
