I am looking for ideas. In 1911 according to electoral rolls Tom SPOONER was allowed to vote due to occupation at Nags head Yard Doncaster. I find him there until 1915 when the voters register was not collected. When they restart his sister in law my great great grandmother as the same voting right. He was born circa 1868 at Chesterfield Derbyshire I have him in all census but the 1911 census. His sister in law my gg grandmother Elizabeth GAGING was born circa 1872. She marries in 1890 to John SPOONER. They have three children Elizabeth Maria, Matilda and George. George the youngest was born 1896 and in 1898 the three of the children are to be found in the Workhouse at Nottingham. The entry books show that Elizabeth abandoned them and John was now in Prison (not that I can find any proof other than this admission register). Elizabeth is next seen onn a death cert of her father in Doncaster in 1909. According to the death cert she is Elizabeth Burns however no marriage exists. She cannot be found on the 1911 census. Then in 1924 she remarries a George Henry Pearce and uses her married name of SPOONER which suggests she was never married to a BURNS. To complicate things further George GAGING Elizabeth's father used to change his surname to that of his wife's maiden name from time to time. He was a hawker and I did wonder if this was to hide from people he sold to. So to cut a long story short, Where the hell was Elizabeth from 1896 to 1909 and again from 1909 to 1918. Why is Tom (he was named Tom not Thomas) listed on voters registers in Doncaster but no where to be seen on census night? Rob
