Sorry, Dave but PLEASE look at my message..........

He could NOT have been 12 when 1911 census was taken

And how did you arrive at the name Emma for Wm's wife?

Flick

Do you have any info about Frank's siblings?

Not from the 1911 census, but from family knowledge.............

His birth cert would resolve all the doubts...........
