1841 and 1891 census: missing person

[ainslie]

Sophia Horatia Ainslie was born in August 1826 in Bengal, East Indies, daughter of Montague and another Sophia.
She came back to England in the 1830s but I can't find her in 1841.  In 1851 and 1861 she was with an aunt in Norfolk and later lived in and around Putney where she died unmarried in 1897.  I have also not found her in 1891.

The surname is often hard to find, as the round verson of a capital A can be misread as W or other options, but I have tried all sorts of searches on Ancestry, including a blank surname, without success.

I hope someone is better than I am at this sort of sleuthing!

Thanks, Jamjar.  I wonder if that was a school.

Groom's reply above pointed me to the Ancestry version of the 1891 entry, in Putney.  Unfortunately the page (5) where Sophia's name should appear, is missing from that version of the images, but he/she has kindly sent the transcript of the FindMyPast version.
I have queried this with Ancestry, who tell me that I must take it up with whoever provided them with the data.  Life is too short to be tracing by address!!!

Not very helpful of Ancestry is it?
