Are you sure he died befor 1881? Have you found widow on 1881 to narrow date of death?

Yes it is odd
On the 1881 Ann is listed as married - not as a widow - but I have had no luck finding Henry listed elsewhere on the 1881. 
There is a death for a Henry Hancock on freebmd in Sep 1891 aged 71 in Sheffield but if this was him where was he on the census in 1881 and possibly 1891 census ?
