Birth of the first child from 1911 census?

Births Mar 1904 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BREAKWELL Elizabeth Gertrude Kidderminster 6c 259

So it would seem that they didn't marry....................perhaps William had a wife already

And Ralph?
Births Jun 1908 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jones Ralph Edward Cleobury M. 6a 574

It doesn't look like they married officially or their marriage was missed from the GRO indexes.

The 1911 census entry states there were married for 11 years, but noticeably Sarah's age is out by a year or two, so I'd take that info with a pinch of salt.

A tree on Ancestry has Sarah Jane as being the daughter of Julia Breakwell and having a stepfather called William Dudley.

There's a marriage for Sarah Breakwell in Cleobury ( same area Flick found her birth) but it's not to Jones...


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marriages Mar 1898

Austin William Henry - Cleobury M. 6a 815
Breakwell Sarah - Cleobury M. 6a 815

They obviously lied in 1911 about their 'marriage'

And the Sarah Jane I found in 1901 is single, age matches up with the birth Flick found.
