Hi Alviegal,
1891 census could be the family as Edith is on my records. I know they were married June qtr 1884 St Giles, I did think there was a long wait for the 1st child. On the birth certificate of my father in law it states his occupation as cab driver. Was a coachman a similar occupation?

The only children I have is
Edith Jun qtr 1890
Sidney Thomas Mar qtr 1892
Albert George 1/6/1893
Frank Mar qtr 1896
Walter Dec qtr 1899
Leonard Dec qtr 1900

I think this is very likely the same family, maybe William and Lillian
had died? as my husband never mentioned these names. Will
need to look on Freebmd see if deaths are registered as they would have been too young to leave home by the 1901 census I would have thought.

Thank you so much for your time and effort, I am very grateful.
