Please could someone help locate some people in the censuses for me.
I'm looking for
Summers Cousins b. 1859 Langtoft, Yorkshire, married Jane Hood first in 1886, then Betsy Smith Rawlinson in 1896. I have found him on the 1861 and 1891 censuses.

Summers parents were,
Thomas John Cousins b. 1829 langtoft, married Ann Ruston also born in langtoft.
Found them on the 1861 only.

Many thanks.
