Mobs are despawning

i had a zombie villager in my cave house and i left to get a apple in the forest, (to make a golden apple 2 cure him) and i came back and the zombie villager was gone! i had the zombie villager in a part of the wall that was 1 by 3 so he could not have run away. 😞

i later went on a test world and traped a naturally spawned (not with a spawn egg) zombie
and a unnaturally spawned (with spawn egg) in a 2-2-2 cobblestone box and and gave the unnaturally spawned 1 a pair of boots, I flew away (about 1-2 hundred blocks away and came back and sure enough the naturally spawned zombie had despawned.

This is what happens to mobs. They despawn over time. 

Mobs will despawn unless you have named him with a name tag that will prevent him from despawning. If not that he will despawn that works as intended. Hope you understand.

Did you do anything to prevent the zombie villager from despawning, such as renaming it?
