Samuel SITCH born 1803St. Martin In The Fields, Westminster, London‏

I am wondering what happened to my 3rd great grandfather, Samuel SITCH born 1803St. Martin In The Fields, Westminster, London to William SITCH and Martha MILLER.

He married Ann BESWICk in 1829 in St George, Hanover Square, Westminster, London.
They both appear in the 1841 census and he appears in the 1843 and 1848 Post Office Directories.
Come the 1851 Census only Ann BESWICK and the children are listed (William, Samuel and Mary Ann), no sign of the husband Samuel.
In the 1861 census we find Ann BESWICK and Mary Ann, again no sign of husband Samuel.
In the 1871 census we find Ann BESWICK and Mary Ann, again no sign of husband Samuel.
The closest death I can find for a Samuel Sitch is in 1857, with burial in the Highgate Cemetery of Saint James, Swains Lane, Saint Pancras (this is within the area of London that most SITCH family members were living at the time).

I wonder where he was for those 9 years?
