I hope that someone may be able to help me with Mary Ann Crowland and Charles Taylor.
Mary Ann is on 1851 census as a 2month old living with parents James and Rachael in Heybridge. She is on the 1861 as 10 year old living with parents at Heybridge.
Mary Ann married Charles Taylor in Maldon 1869 q2 4A 265. No solid knowledge of who Charles is or where from.
They had a son Stephen Charles baptised 31 Jul 1870 at St Mary, Maldon father a tinman of St Peter in Maldon.
Stephen Charles is on the 1871 census living with Rachael Crowland, his grandmother.
I cannot find Mary Ann or Charles Taylor in 1871 census, or anywhere after 31 July 1870
I understand that a tinman was a tinsmith, who worked with tinned metals and similar sheet metals. Presumably Bentalls and perhaps Maldon Iron Works - amongst others - might have provided work.
But where have Mary Ann and Charles gone? Any ideas or suggestions would be most welcome and helpful
