William Carter 1829

[bobtonks]

William Carter was born in Histon 1829 to John and Hannah Carter.

In 1841, 1851 and 1861 he was recorded living in Histon .... after that nothing.

Can anyone see what happened to him?

Thanks for looking.
I looked at the census 1901 but he is recorded as a widower...... and can't find a marriage

Have you already ruled out the 1869 marriage on freebmd

EDIT

Ignore - Just found transcription - his father was Jeremiah

What was his occupation in the census years you have?

I appreciate there are quite a few William Carter's born 1828-30 in Cambs. One to consider/dismiss is a William Carter married Emma Bosscawen 7th Feb 1864. Both are of full age, William does not record a father.

1871.

Trouble is no record of Histon, age a year or so out on census and no father recorded at marriage.

added, do not believe details on an Anc Tree re William Jonas Carter re his parents.

1851/61 he's an Ag Lab

John

Just about to post that one John.  Yes birthplace just Cambridgeshire in 1871/1881 but a possibility. 

So there should be a death 1881-1891.
