1911 census shows they had had 2 children, one of whom had died. As this 2nd child was not with them in any of the censuses I guess they were born and died between censuses. However, no matching birth and death appear in the BMD registrations index. Because the baptism register for Charleton Parish Church held at the DRO only goes to 1861 would need to approach the parish to find out if there was a baptism and burial there.
