Elizabeth HARRIS, b. Abt 1815, Dover, Kent, England (Grandmother) Notes - Of 80 West Street (his parents address) when he married.
Not with his wife and children in 1911 census (not found in the census) - might he have been at sea?
His family were living at 28 Crown Quay Lane, presumably in Sittingbourne in 1911. By then Edwin and Caroline had had 5 children but only 3 were still living. Whilst the names of the 2 who had died are not known for certain, there appear to have only been 2 children born between the date of their marriage and 1911 who had also died: these are thus shown here.
