I've given the link straight to them in 1881. (Above)
Can't find 'em for definite in 1871 or 1891..

Rather than sign up with Ancestry, try seeking out free-to-use access at a library; quite a few have it

Thanks for the link, I must have read your mind!
I'm in Australia, out in the 'sticks' a bit so the library isn't really an option for me .. :'(
