Thank you everyone :-))

I am at a complete loss.

Sue

I have one of those too Sue, I'm looking but can't find Nicodemus

xx

It's like an alien abduction!

Any theories greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Sue

Can't see a thing, have tried Rupert also but no luck. Quite a mystery!
Jan

That's him Jan, it's a bloomin' mystery. I guess he could have been farmed out and had his name changed but I really would like to know if he exists under his name somewhere.

Sue

Splendid name! Can't see him after 1881. here are his details just to make sure:

Name: Nicodemus Hubert Court
[Nicodemus Rupert Court Court]
Age: 5
Estimated birth year: abt 1876
Relation: Son
Mother's Name: Emily Adelaide
Gender: Male
Where born: Godalming, Surrey, England

Have you found Emily on any later census - do you know if she married - off to bed now, will check your thread tomorrow
Liz

Hi Liz,

I checked deaths for Rupert/Nicodemus and came up with nothing. I was excited as it was an interesting name but that soon fell flat. Hubert was a mistranscription.

Sue

Do you think he could have died between census - I cannot find him on any later census - perhaps he used the name Hubert
Liz

His mother had two children but ignored marriage :-)

You can find him in the first census, on the second Emily is still with her daughter but Nicodemus isn't. Can anyone find trace of him please?

Thanks

Sue
