Sorry, had missed further entries from GB and Judith, but haven't had time to take details in yet.
I'm on another search that you may be able to help me with. See separate thread for Kalthoeber and Duck

Just a quick thanks to Glitter Baby and others for help with this thread. I will continue to try and find details for 1861.

Yes GB, that's what worries me. It seems too much of a coincidence for there to be two Joseph and Letitias but where do Letitia, ada and henry disappear to?

And where did they disappear to in 1861?

Are there two families with the same name...I think there are.

Ronald - when you say "Have found Joseph and Letitia on 1871 and 1881 census returns, but nothing on 1861 as you said GB"

where have you found them (do you have the references?)

Sorry, you'd already said you had guessed incorrectly

GB - I think you've cracked it again with the Joseph Hodgson marriage. How did you access details of marriage without cert? Brilliant.

Madmeg
The Cocks family are on my mother's side. They were mainly undertakers living in Westminster and Fulham. The John Cocks I've found on the 1841 lived in Orchard Street, which is close to my other John Cocks (Rochester Row). I don't know if the 1841 John is definitely related to my family, but another lady who is also researching Cocks believes there is a link.
I take your point about David Henry Cocks marriage.

I think the Ealing Hodgson is not mine, but thanks anyway

I am not aware of anyone getting fed up with you Ronald.

If the David Henry who married in 1845 is the David Henry who was 12 in 1841, then he was only 16 on marriage. Not impossible, though unusual.

Or maybe his age in 1841 was incorrect. You would need to get the marriage cert to be sure.

But your question is about finding them in later years.

Can I ask who your known ancestor is? And how you know who he or she is, i.e what evidennce you have?
