I have Lydia born 1869. Bloomsbury, London to John and Eleanor Alden. I have found all records including birth/marriage and death and 1871/1901/1911 but there is no trace of her on 1881 and 1891 census so would someone be so kind as to see if they can find her for me please.

EDIT I forgot to mention she married JohnEdward Saysell in 1888(London) and in 1901 they are living in Derby
