Frederick and Sarah may well have had more children, born and died between censuses, especially likely is that there was one between 1892 and 1897. However, there were a number of Harris - Bells couples, and with the family moving around quite a bit due to Frederick being in the army it is not easy to work out which if any were theirs. (Sarah died before 1911 and so that census does not show how many children were born to the marriage)
