Although this is only a distant twig on my tree, I don't like mysteries. Would anyone like to help in my search for a missing husband?
Fanny Parslow (born 1842 St Giles in the Fields) married Richard Roderick Bruce in 1866 (found on Ancestry London Marriages). They had a son Archie Roderick in 1867.
I can't find Richard on any census. In 1871 Fanny & Archie are living with her brother Thomas and sister Caroline. In 1881, they are with her mother Sarah and sister Caroline and in 1891 they are with Caroline. In 1871 and 1881 Fanny is shown as married but as a widow in 1891.
Can anyone find any trace of Richard please? On Archie's marriage certificate in 1891 he is shown as Roderick (deceased).
