William Morrow of Dublin Ireland married Alice Parker of Limerick Ireland in 1887 - in Limerick. In 1892 William emigrated to the US with Henrietta Corcoran. In San Francisco, they had two chidren there.
In the 1911 Dublin census William was back in Dublin and inadvertently filled in the marriage and family columns meant for married women. There he stated that he was 21 years in his present marriage and had 3 children all still living. So it appears that one child was born to him with Alice, and he/she does not appear in the US records. Does anyone out there know anything about this 'third child'? Alice was in a Torquay YWCA hostel inthe 1901 census, in Newton Abbot workhouse in 1911 and died there in 1913.
