The family seem to have emigrated to the USA in about 1886 or 1887 (1888 according to 1900 census, 1886 according to 1910 - entries for Mary Ann, but their first child to be born in the USA was born 1887 so it has to be by then).
I am assuming they all went although William Henry died back in England in 1900.
Mary Ann was also inconsistent with the number of children she had mothered, the 1900 census showing 5, while the 1910 census shows 10! (Her age means she cannot have had 5 between 1900 and 1910). Both show she had 4 living. Did she think the question referred to the number who had emigrated to the US? i.e. did William and Mary Ann have 3 more after arriving? I think this is possible, though the number of living suggests that if they did all died young (they would have been born between 1888 and 1900, but all dead by 1900)
