Definitely the right people, fitting with the Norris name in 1901 census.

No marriage, though, so she had just taken his name.

(well they seem to be in right places looking at some info. posted earlier!, perhaps better add them to your list, lol)

(also in above, plus other articles) (see also Daisy Delmont!)

Thank you Chris, but who on earth are Mr James Norris and Daisy Delmont? Nom de plumes for her parents, Mr James Carroll and Kathleen Elizabeth Daisy Carroll nee Crowe perhaps?

Dezmonti name comes up on google search, also Newspapers.

(very often with Comedians, Actors, Theatrical Artists etc. they have 'stage names' making them a bit hard to trace, lol, and they don't always stick to same!)

PECKHAM VARIETIES, SOUTHAMPTON STREET.
James Norris and Daisy Delmont, variety artists;

Thank you ArgyllGran. My next request was going to be about how I can find out why Edina Madge Moya Carroll had became Madge Moya Horton by the time she married my grandfather in 1918. I know I'm not very experienced regarding family history, but I think I've tried every avenue and can only assume that it's possible James Carroll's wife Daisy lived with Walter at some point. There is now the added complication that Daisy was also known as Norris and Moya has Norris as her surname in the 1901 Census. An interesting point is that Madge Moya is reputed to have spent time with a circus troupe known as the Dezmonti Trio, one of them being Walter Horton. I have been told she travelled to America with Walter and others, but have no idea when that was. Hope I haven't bored you with all this and thanks again for your help. Gill

An old thread of Gill's, about Moya - but not solving the Horton question:

And a family tree listing two more Carroll children:

http://www.peterlg.co.uk/ghtout/gp4876.html

The tree on Ancestry says this is Moya's marriage (don't know where the name Horton / Herton comes from):

Madge M Horton
in the England & Wales, Civil Registration Marriage Index, 1916-2005
Name: Madge M Horton
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1918
Registration district: Howden
Inferred County: Yorkshire East Riding
Spouse: Arthur Otter
Volume Number: 9d
Page Number: 161

But this birth of a child looks as if the marriage is the wrong one - unless she was claiming Horton was her maiden name;

Births Dec 1919
Otter Samuel A Horton Howden 9d 5285/5
Otter Samuel O Horton Howden 9d 142


However, she certainly seems to have died as Otter, and in Yorkshire:

Wow! I can't thank you all enough for the help you have given me. I'm going to need some time to go through all the information and see what I can marry up with what I already have. Once again many thanks. I will let you know how I get on.

Same tree has his death as 1904

Edit from a tree on ancestry

James Carroll

Birth: 9 Jun 1862 - England
Death: Dec 1904 - Liverpool, Lancashire, England
Spouse: Kathleen Elizabeth Daisy Crowe

There is an internment on December 26 1904 of a James Carroll, address Royal Infirmary, age 41, in grave 430. If born in June 1862 he would have been 42, but the age could be wrong from the informant or the Ancestry tree is wrong.

A tree on Ancestry has him dying in Liverpool in 1904 and buried at Ford Cemetery.

Worth investigating further, or have you dismissed it?

It also gives his birth as 9th June 1862 Liverpool, not 1863 Lancashire.

Don't think there's a specific list
His death cert will give details of cause of death

If you think he died in Scotland then you need Scotlands People website

What were the names of the children . Have you found them on later census
