I have William Richardson b 1822 Brighton

In 1871 he is at Scotland Street, Brighton
and in 1881 he is in the Racehill Workhouse, Brighton.

Anything prior would be a great help

Thanks

Now that's intersting...my William was a Carpenter...but he definatley had a son called Cain b 1859. I have a wifes name of possibly Emma and siblings for Cain,,,,Rose and Harry.
Doesn't look like the same family...but thanks for looking.

Would you post the 1871 census returns you have for all these people?
What I see is 
At Scotland Street:
William Richardson, head, Carpenter, b. Brighton
Emma, wife, 55, b. Franfield?
Harry, son, 13, Grocers assistant, b. Brighton
Robert Pollard, son in law, mar, 36, Bricklayer, b. B??ted
/
Harriett Richardson, lodger, mar, 39, Charwoman, b. do.
Cain Richardson, son, 11, Pork Butchers Assistant, b. Rotherfield
Rose Richardson, dau, 3, b. Maresfield?

Cain and Rose seem to be Harriett's children and not William's, what do you think?

It just shows how easy it is to miss things on census...
like those two little //
I'll have to go through and re-check my records.

Thanks again
