I have never been able to find my Great Grandfather Edwin Thomas Brown on the 1881 and was wondering if anyone had any ideas. Also, there is no birth registration for him. His family is on the 1891 thus:- |

Thank you both. As it happens, I found the same entry this afternoon. As Emma's husband's name was in doubt, I looked for a marriage between John Brown and Emma in the area at around the correct time. The only Emmas I found were Lilly and Tarling. I could not find them on the 1871 with the correct birthplace and date so assumed this was yet another dead end. |

Wow! Thank you Jim. I had looked for Emma Tarling on the 1871 but had not thought to look for a birth reg. I shall follow this up now. |
