    Default Missing family????

    After a very long time searching, I have found a family that interests me greatly(could this possibly be my elusive great-grandmother I dont dare to hope).
    I have found an 1871 census ~ rg10; p 745; folio 68; page 24
    The Laurence family, the main person I am trying to trace would be the Tilly, aged 2 ...... but I cannot find this family in the 1881, 1891 or 1901 census..... or even any individuals


    Any help anybody?????

    Possibly William and the other children. Living only a few doors away from Emma.

    RG11/706 folio 100 page 22

    William (indexed as Lawrence, debatable as to whether the enumerator wrote Laurence or Lawrence), think it's a badly-written widower, 52,
    John, son, 20,
    Mary A, daur, 15
    Kate, daur, 7
    Lissy (sic, but indexed as Lizzey), daur, 5

    Everyone listed as wood cutter and born in Kent Deptford.

    Dear Waitabit,

    I had seen this Matilda, and checked her out. She cant be my Matilda, because I do know that this Matilda Vine is easily traceable through census's with James and have seen her death index. My Matilda went on to have two children with William Pratt, a MATILDA PRATT, Junior born 1898 in Deptford and a WILLIAM PRATT, Junior born in sutton-at-hone, Swanley in 1900. She then came back to Deptford and died there in 1922. Its her earlier years I am trying to trace. Thanks though for the tip!!!
