Thanks for the response. I'll reply here to both of your responses
first George in the 1861 census-good thought. I shall search again and this time widen my search- I didn't find them (George and Ellen) in Gloucestershire, though their son George Edward was baptised in Abenhall that year.
The long gap between 1861 and 1867 is indeed an interesting question. One for future research after I have got a bead on the elusive George...
As for the other 2 kids in the 1871 census, they are indeed Lydia BENNETT's siblings. Ellen was one of 7 Stidder sisters, and George Edward is with his aunt Mary Ann Richards, wife of Richard Richards, while Sarah Stidder is with Hannah Woods another sister. Hannah was the witness on thw wedding entry for George and Ellen's wedding. I have searched out much more information on the Stidder family than for George's family, but the suggestion gives me one more avenue to try, so thank you.
