Catherine Coxon - missing 1861 and 1871 census

[asner1]

Thanks so much Louisa, yes i did try looking under Maskery - but no real clues were revealed.

Yes, it is quite probable that he was determined not to be tracked down. Sad, as he was only 33 in 1891 - when he left his wife and two young sons. I would love to know what he did with his life once he got to Yorkshire. 

Perhaps his wife Catherine had already started up a relationship with the said John Shepherd (prior to 1891) - and so Allen bolted off to Yorkshire with a broken heart? So many possibilities of course.

Hopefully his two young sons (one of them my Great Grandfather) had a Father figure - in the shape of John Shepherd.

Thanks again . . .

It is sad when people just disappear, I have 2 in my family , where they have gone no one knows, I just cannot find then, the 1921 census might reveal something

He might be miss-transcribed on 1901 although I have looked

Don't give up on him, he might turn up at a later date when you least expect it

Happy Hunting

Thanks Louisa for your efforts. 

Yes i will keep hunting.

I agree, the 1921 census might show up some results for Allen. I have started a count-down to 2021.

Good luck with your research too.

Hi Ray,
Thanks for the information on James Maskery - 1861 census. I am pretty sure it is a correct match.

Unfortunately i cannot locate the census you refer to. I have checked with Ancestry.com and Find My Past - with no success. Do you have any tips on where i can locate that census form?

Many thanks in advance.

I think  most of us have started the countdown to 2021, can't wait myself either after a few have gone AWOL, I am hoping   they will reveal themselves

Happy Hunting

Thanks Louisa,

Yes, hoping the 1921 census will be a good one for all of us.

Roll on 2021 . . .

Thanks Ray, i think i found James in 1861 - thanks to your link etc.

Pretty sure this would have been him - nothing else comes as close.
