Doreen has a previous thread on the family (now ticked as answered) where this same question has also been asked-

https://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards/board/ancestors/thread/1375158

Marriage, and census 1891 /1901/1911 posted there

Initially she said she thought Margaret had married a Davies, but then came up with the actual date.

The thread was originally about previous generations of the Bevan family and a lot of work was done going down wrong lines, with information that the poster had taken from a geni.com tree

Is his wife on 1911?

If so, what is her marital status?

Have you looked on freebmd for possible death for William?
