1871 lookup please - John & Fanny MORSHEAD

[BassinghamTerrier]

Hi

Can anybody help here please?
I am tracing the line of John Morshead (1866-1934), grocer in Bassingham, Lincolnshire.
I have found him in the 1921, 1911, 1901, 1891, and 1881, but I cannot find him in 1871.

I believe that his parents were John Morshead and Fanny Rablin/Rabblin/Rabling who were married in Redruth, Cornwall, in Sep Q 1848.
John Jnr. was baptised in Redruth in the Jun Q of 1866 (vol 5c, page 310)

In 1871 he must be 5 years old, his mother will be 43 (she was baptised in Camborne, 18 Aug 1827).
I have no idea whether or not his father is still alive at this point as I know that by 1881 Fanny is widowed.
There will almost certainly be an older brother to John Jnr. living with them, Richard, who was born c1860.

If anybody could please fill in the details for 1871 and the father's death I would be very grateful.

Thanks in advance!
