When you say she could have "possibly " married George Nunn, do you have any evidence to support this?

Presumably then, given approx birth years, George and Bernard were born prior to her possible marriage?

If your dates are correct, she was only about 13 or 14 when she had George!

I did a quick free check on the 1911 census, and Bernard Dudley Wakeford is apparently in an Institution in Epsom Surrey.


Ada Emmeline Dudley is apparently at home in Petersfield Hampshire with mother Martha and several siblings.


You have to pay to see the census images to get any further information
