No however in 1881 census there is a William J West and Ann West (ages for Ann fit in and also place of birth) However the only marriage I can find between these two is for Ann Oxley which is even more confusing.

To be absolutely sure I would get Rhoda's birth certificate.

William in 1881 was a fisherman which is a good reason why he is not on the 1901 census.

Hi

The mother was from Sandwich, Kent.

She was still married in this census but cannot find them in the 1991 census.

However Rhoda's middle name was Holmes and she was born in Ramsgate, Kent.

As girls were given the mothers maiden name as a middle name (have come across this alot) we can safetly assume she was Annie Holmes.

This is the only one that corresponds with your request however it states S as a middle name have looked on the census and it could have been mistranscribed but i doubt it. Does it fit in with your research

Hi Louise

Can't find him on the 41 census however his age would have mean he could possibly be in service in a house or an apprenticeship - in the 41 census they did not both to do these.
