Another Manns brick wall!

1858 Charles Manns born in Dymock, Glos on 06.05.1858. Registered in Newent.Parents Joseph & Ann Beard

It looks as if he travelled away from Gloucestershire to work as a Mat Maker/Rag Weaver

02.10.1880 married Margaret Elizabeth Fisher in Lancester

By 1911 Census living in Wakefield.

1939 Register he is living alone (Widower) still in Wakefield

My problem is that i cannot find his death date. Hope someone on here will be able to help

Many thanks

I am also trying to find his family in the 1891 Census

I have found him living alone in 1891 in Deansgate, Manchester but no sign of his family,
wife Margaret Elizabeth and children James,Charles & Lionel Sylvester Manns

However, athey are all back together in the 1901 Census, living in Wakefield.

Thank you

Margaret MANS, Wid, 29, Nurse, born Lancaster

Thank you. This is the correct family. I wonder why they were not with the husband Charles who was living on Manchestet and shy call herself a widow

Thank you. I did see this record but dismissed it because of him living in Malvern. However, the Lionel Sylvester Manns mentioned would be his son so I sm thinking that this is the correct Charles

I have seen this before. It is easier for the woman to say she is a widow, rather than have to explain where her husband is!
