I have done really well tracing the King family back to Thomas KIng who was born about 1815. The tracing gets a bit sketchy around James King born in City, London 1846, and here I cannot find the family on census records. According to James King's marriage cert.
Thomas was a publican. and on what I think is James' birth cert. he is a policaman. Were police families off the census records does anyone know? I do not know if James had siblings, but he had many children, and was an umbrella maker in Bethnal Green. His wife was Mary Ann Tillett. married in1872.Anyone got any links?

What is the mother's name on the birth cert?

Don't think policemen were excluded from census - I have one on the 1891
