1871 and 1881 Census - Brightman

[davierj]

In 1871 Eunice Brightman, born about 1812, is living with 3 of her sons in Box Moor, Hemel Hempstead.   According to freeBMD she died 1881 Sep quarter in Watford district but I am unable to trace her in the 1881 census which took place early April.   I would like to know what her and her sons' occupations were in 1871 and if anyone can find her in 1881.
