Hi Fairy,

You can get free access at Family Search for the 1881 census, so much fun finding it yourself.

If you get stuck come back and someone will help.

Was he living with any of his children in the 1891 census. If so you could look for one of the children in the 1881 census.

Also if you look at the age of the oldest child give or take a couple of years you could look for marriages on freebmd
