  Notes	Interesting Facts. After checking for a marriage before first child was born nothing was found. Turned to 1901 census to discover Morris' wife was called Amelia and was born in Wiltshire. This didn't help. Tried the 1911 census and Amelia is head of household and states she has been married 9 years! She has put 3 children born to this marriage, which is loosely correct as She and Morris were married in 1901! There are 7 children in total the first born in 1894 so she and Morris were living as a couple before the marriage. She was probably trying to save face with the recording of the marriage and 3 youngest children! Morris cannot be found anywhere on the 1911 census so probably working away from home.
