Thanks hepburn.
If he was a lodger, it looks as if the rest of the family did not survive the Workhouse.  How do I find out more about The Workhouse ?? any ideas?

Some of the Admissions and Discharges registers for the Chesterfield workhouse still exist in the Derbyshire Records Office at  Matlock. I don't know whether they cover the period you are interested in. They might tell you whether they left the workhouse and when.
