Can anyone help me find where Thomas COE went after the 1871 census?
Here's what I know
Thomas was born in 1840 in Cheveley, Cambridgeshire and baptised there on 6 Dec 1840.
He moved to West Ham and was lodging there and working as a labourer at a ship builders in 1861.
He married Sarah Ann KNIGHT Q3 1865 in West Ham. Sarah was born in Billinghay, Lincolnshire.
In 1871 Thomas was a dock labourer and he and Sarah were living in West Ham. RG10/1631 folio 39 page 77 "Mother" Martha Addison was in the household (also born Billinghay so I presume she was Sarah's mother and had remarried. I think I have found Sarah living with grandparents when aged 4 and an uncle when she was 14)
Thomas COE and Sarah had 2 daughters, Sarah born 1868/7 and Emma born 1871/2.
Thomas' wife Sarah died in Q3 1876 in Sleaford district, Lincolnshire. Both their daughters were in Lincolnshire in 1881 - Sarah in the union workhouse in New Sleaford, and Emma with aunt Ann Harness at the Wheatsheaf Inn, North Kyme.
I haven't found Thomas COE in 1881 or subsequent censuses until he turns up in 1911 living with his daughter Emma and her husband William WELLS in North Kyme Lane, Billinghay, Lincolnshire. RG14PN19605 RG78PN1177 RD416 SD1 ED2 SN15
Any ideas where he was between the 1871 and 1911censuses please?
