Although as Elizabeth was then a widow and the information was not required (and so was struck through), the 1911 census shows that James and Elizabeth had had 12 children, 11 of whom were still living.

Mar Q 1869, Etruria, Staffordshire, England , d. 18 Mar 1920, 25, Yoxall Avenue, Hartshill, Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire, England (Age ~ 51 years) Married 12 Sep 1892 Christ Church, Fenton, Staffordshire, England - From PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 5 Sep 2016) GRO ref: Gotham, Elizabeth to Brealey, William W q3 1892 Stoke T.

Local BMD (Staffs index for 1892): GOTHAM, Elizabeth to BREALEY, William W; Church: Fenton, Christ Church; Registers at: Stoke-On-Trent; Ref.: 10/5/128.
The 1911 census shows they had had 4 children, all of whom were still living (and all with them at the time of the census). It is accurate as their (or at least, Elizabeth's) son who had died was born about 4 weeks before they married, so was not a child of the marriage.
