What ever happened to Edward Bevan

[kitman64]

I have Edward Bevan b Hangrove Herefordshire 1850 , 1881 census, with wife Eliza b 1855 "no maiden as yet" and daughter Annie age 5, Annie married Thomas long 1898 in Pontypool.  Am about to get marriage cert for Thomas and Annie, for MOTHERS MAIDEN NAME, as the story goes when Annie was 6 the father left for work one morning never to return an extensive search was made for him, but  alas never heard from again. I cannot locate Edward after 1881 census, can anyone out there kindly have a look for him after 1881. I have not yet located marriage? for Edward and Eliza hopefully Eliza maiden name may shed some light

How does this fit? Annie Bevan birth registered Monmouth March quarter 1875. Mother's maiden name Burford..Still looking for possible marriage.

P S . If I have the correct record for Edward in 1881, living at 36 Edward Street, Cardiff, Eliza is described as his SISTER. (Dep on brother)

PP S. The names William Bevan and Caroline. Burford appear on the same page of the register March 1872 Monmouth.

Yes I agree it says Eliza is his sister not wife.  Both down as unmarried. 

So could Annie have been the daughter of Eliza?  Would make sense she was dependent on brother if she had a child on her own.  Although no relationship to Edward or Eliza is given for Annie

1901 gives age as 26 https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X9TY-X8Y

I would get Annie's MC to see if she lists Edward as father, you would not obtain Mmn from marriage, with English/Welsh cert.

Was Edward indexed twice in 1881 Census?
If he was away maybe explains the other strange 1881 Census.

Edward Bevan, 28 (1853), Lodger, Mar*, Coachman, born Llangwm, Hereford, England
Lodging in Llanelly, Breconshire

Who knows Trish, this family apart from Annie a bit of an enigma, not easily finding any background on parents..how about you? Waiting if OP has any other info...
