Ericthered,

Have double checked 1881 census records and no sign of him, am starting to wonder if he left Britains shores?

Jill,

Thankyou for that, as you may be aware from an earlier response, I am wondering if he left the country, can you or anyone else recommend a site that gives passenger listings free??
Hubbys now out of work and cannot justify spending more money on my hobby.

Hi Tracey

I don't have worldwide Ancestry but top of the immigration/emigration list is an Austin Betts b. abt 1849 going to New York. Don't know what year though as cannot see more than that.

Would be worth putting up a thread asking for immigration look up for him.
