Yes that's Martha in the 1871 -
I've got her from then until she died

maybe Robert was not going to get better and went home to die.
Unfortunately because I can't find him in the 1861 I don't know what his occupation was

thanks Christine

Appreciate your help -
I will buy the death cert - but it will probably be the Hadley address in 1871

what I was hoping to find was his parents & siblings (if any) on the census.

The address on the birth cert for 1839 is Mary's Place, Chadwick Street, Liverpool says Howard Street district

Thanks again Christine

Can you remember what Roberts occupation was on marriage?

If his father was a mariner, he might not be present on any of the census's....!

there is a Betsey Jenkinson marrying in Liverpool in 1876 -
either James Warnes or Thomas Ross McKenzie
but cannot find them in 1881!

think I might give up for today!
obviously having a bad one!

Thanks Christine

The mysterious disappearing family! I've got a few of those! Sometimes it just helps to give up for a while and then come back to it later.....you'll probably find her mistranscribed as Betty Blenkinsop or something!
