Details from PR entry (image on FMP, viewed 24 Jun 2017)
This couple had at least 14 children (those with them in the 1871-1891 censuses), but rather on the edge of this tree, so at the moment I have just added the two of most interest.

Although as a widow Maud should not have filled in the section in the 1911 census about her marriage, she did, and recorded she had had seven children, one of whom had died. Five were with her, but not Frank or Elsie May, so it must have been one of those who had died. The BMD index shows it was Frank. Looking for Elsie, I find she was with an aunt and uncle.
