True! Although (in my own defence :-0) I didn't find them very useful!!
Fred - born Tonbridge Kent
Ethel - Southboro[ugh Kent]
Florence - Sevenoaks, Kent
Frank (maybe Francis?) - Shipern, Kent
William - Shippern??, Pooad??
Emily - Hay Dun, Wiltshire
Fred - Hay Dun, Wiltshire - conflict with Tonbridge ...
HTH

You didn’t post birthplaces for all
Fred and Emily on 1891 were said to be born Wiltshire
Sarah was born in Trowbridge

I've searched Ancestry and FMP for Sarah Wicken's maiden name without success. There's a misleading marriage record near Leicester IIRC but that is a different family.
I've looked on GRO and FMP for birth records for each of the children and have failed to find consistent believable records. In particular, all of the children's records have different MMNs. The closest I came were MMN = Rollings, Rawlings, Rawlinson in separate records - close but no cigar!
No baptism records have turned up either.
If it helps, my initial interest was in Ethel Wickens 1891, sister of Florence Ada Wickens 1882 (married to Charles Cheeseman), found together in C1911
I must be missing something obvious, can you please help me find it?
Many thanks
Keith
