These three brothers appear to have been missing for the period 1851 until next heard from around 1865/6.
Sidney joined the army in 1866, George was married in 1866 and Charles was noted on the 1871 census.
In 1847 their father died and their mother married again 2 months later and promptly disappeared after the children were jointly baptized in January 1848 and then placed in the Rochford Union workhouse.
They were noted there at the 1851 census, but there is no trace of them in the
1861 census.
1. I assume that the Essex Coiunty archives would have records of when the
children were released from the workhouse and possibly where they went to.
Are these records on line or is it possible to get a copy of the records from the County.
2. I am of the opinion that they may have been reunited with their mother and step father but have not been able to find any passenger record of
them going overseas either to Canada/USA/NZ/Aust and think that they may have gone to continental Europe.
3. Are there records i.e. death records that can be accessed on line for
this area please.
