Sarah Ann Edwards - missing
« on: Sunday 26 May 24 14:31 BST (UK) »

Hi, Sarah Ann Edwards, born to Eliza Edwards at Hannington, Wiltshire in 1840 is with Edwards grandparents Henry and Sarah in the 1841 and 1851 census but is missing from that point onwards.  What happened to her?  Haven't found a marriage nor a burial nor in later census.  Some of her Edwards family stayed put, some scattered - London, Oxfordshire, Hillingdon and Somerset so this feels like a needle in a haystack but if someone with eagle eyes can help I'd be very grateful ;D

Was the 5 year old listed as another granddaughter in 1851 her sister?

No suggestions to offer for Sarah Ann I'm afraid  :-\ 

Had her mother died?

Well, thanks for trying.  It helps to know I haven't missed something obvious  ;D

No, mum was working away from home.

Hi Carole

I hadn't seen it until now but I've ruled it out because in the post-marriage census she is always from Urchfont and she said dad was John and there is a baptism that confirms that.  I thought you'd found her for a mo... ;D

Thank you for looking.
