Does that entry in 1857 for George mean that he died in 1857?

Quote from: Peggy13 on Thursday 17 June 21 19:40 BST (UK)
I see George and Elizabeth on the 1850 census. George is 71.  But I don’t find them in 1860. Does anyone else? If not he must’ve died between 1850 and 1860. Maybe his death certificate gives his parents, Same for Elizabeth. First son Samuel born about 1800 although that makes Elizabeth only 15 when he was born so the ages must be out a little bit.
