Can anyone help me find Abigail in the 1881 English Census or elsewhere?  Her children are boarding with people by the name of BROWN at Holdenhurst Hampshire.  All, but one of the twins Alberta b1871.  We assume she has died but this cannot be confirned until we find Abigail!

Abigail is supposed to have a relative buried on St Helena and some relation was supposed to have been a chartelaine in Belgium or France.  Could she be in one of these places?  I have tried to access known records but are there others out there I don't know about?

She is in the 1871 census and back in Hampshire by 1891.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks for trying Wayne.  I have her in all English censuses, from 1851 until 1911.  I am only missing 1881. She and twin daughter Alberta cannot be found.    Her other 2 girls are boarding at Holdenhurst so presumably she has gone away to work and maybe Alberta died, but no death certificate.  Her husband is also a bit of a mystery and not certain.  I am hoping to find where she is at this time as I hope it may shed further light on both her and her husband.

As I said, perhaps she may have been in France, Belgium or St Helena.  I am not so confident of the available records there.
