In the 1861 census there is no obvious record of Paulina and James Foster in a search of Nafferton's Enumeration Districts 11 and 12, suggesting they have moved. Neither is there an obvious Paulina Foster, born Nafferton 1837±1 or James Foster, born Nafferton 1831±1 in a search of 2000 Ancestry 1861 census records.
| This is probably accounted for by the report in the Hull Packet and
East Riding Times of 1857, which records a marital fracas between the
Foster family and the Cromptons. It would seem that Paulina had
returned to her grandmother's home and the Fosters came to get her.
The resulting damage to property and the threat to Paulina resulted in
costs plus fines or imprisonment. Paulina and James must have got together again as two children, Martha and Madalina, were born some years later. James Foster died in the first quarter of 1864 (GRO ref: Hull 10a 75). |

The 1891 census shows that the Fosters had moved to their own home with their three daughters. Charles had changed his employment from 'jobbing cutler' to 'showman', perhaps hinting at a more nomadic life.

There are no obvious entry for Madalina Foster/Hyldon, Paulina Hyldon and Edmond Hyldon, using wildcards, in the Ancestry 1881 census.
However, in the fourth quarter of 1882, at Stockton, Rose FOSTER married Thomas Cook, which confirms she is James Foster's daughter. They had two children.
In the 1901 census Paulina, now married for the third time and a Cariss, is now living with Madalina and her son in law.
