Missing from census
« on: Monday 22 February 10 10:50 GMT (UK) »
I can find no trace of my g grandfather and gg grandfather in the 1861 census. Their names were Henry and Richard Bradshaw. In 1871 they are in Llangynwyd with Richard's second wife Elizabeth. I know that richard and Elizabeth were marries in 1864 in Cardiff and that Henry was born in 1857 (by Richard's first wife Caroline) I can find other members of the family working as farm servants but not a sign of the father and son. Any ideas would be welcome - it could just be that they 'missed' the census - or could there be any other reason that I have not thought of - Richard is also missing from the 1841 census - when he was probably in his native warwickshire.

thanks

hi kerry 1212
No I do not have a John Bradshaw- do you think there is any conection to Richard? He was born in 1820 in either Leamington or Balsall Common and I know from his marriage cert that his father was William an Agricultural Labourer

Don't have a date for Richardonly 1820 have dates for his children.
Isabella  19 Nov 1848
Fanny 1 Feb 1850
Elizabeth 1852
Mary 1855
Henry 25 Aug 1857

Henry was born in Wales and maybe Mary (unable to fiond her exact date. Richard married Caroline Woodhouse 11 July 1849 in Lichfield ie after Isabella was born - no father named on birth cert.
That's about all I have except for some census details.
