Hello everyone - Enoch Kenyon was born in 1841, in Farnworth, Lancashire, the son of James (a greengrocer) and Margaret (Peggy), he was the second son, they had: John, Enoch, Thomas, Mary A, William, James and Peter. By the 1861 census Enoch, now 20 was a coal miner, as was brother Thomas. He married Mary Bailey in the Dec 1/4 of 1862 and they had 2 children William Bailey Kenyon who was born in Farnworth and John Robert who was born in the June 1/4 1865 in Bolton (who died young). By the 1871 census, wife Mary is living with her mother and the 2 children, she is listed as married not widowed, but Enoch has disappeared! There is no death record up to or beyond that time. There was a big colliery disaster in Farnworth in 1877, but he was not listed. So where did he go...???
Any help or suggestions would be welcomed.
