The wife of Alfred is Eliza Kenney but I think you have ruled that one out..not sure why?

The tree also shows Edwin arriving back to the UK 1902. If hes like my family they were back and forwards all the time!

(not sure about reference to sister of head of house. Can't see a head of house other than Edwin, but definitely states she is his wife)

Have recd a PM from Roy, so am going to post all I can find, as he didn't know about Edwin and him going to America (not for sure anyway).

Here goes - I think this is when he first went. Appears to be on his own.

(On the 1871 UK census he was an apprentice bellow maker with his brother Alfred). On the 1900 USA census states he went to New York in 1875.

mind you, he does not show-up on 1881 or 1911 census',i don't have access to 1901--but i bet he's absent on there aswell...so my thinking is still that he has died between 1871--1881

He could well have. I looked for a relative for ages and hadnt thought looking past a certain date..he died in 1912 age 97!

Youve no imagination Roy !!!!!!!!!!

yikes !!!!!!!!!!!!...i am thinking that maybe he died after 1871 census & just has not been transcribed onto BMD yet...thanks for help

Ive had a look on emmigration and cant find anything....stowaway? It did happen!

Ginny

this could be true Ginny...but Frankton not a very common name in UK,thought he might show-up somewhere( perhap's he emigrated ? ).....this death of other Alfred (in my posting,above)

Roy

If you or anyone else cant find a marriage for him it could be that he didnt marry and so could be anyone of the Alfreds with any women on the census's!
