My conclusion is that the 1911 Census is wrong, but I have not found William in the 1911 Census

Marriage AMJ 1880 does not tally with 32 complete years of marriage at time of 1911 census

Sorry - confusion my fault, in posting that wrong 1911 census!
I hadn't paid enough attention to Martha's death date.

There's a Robinson/Faulkner marriage in 1878 in Salford , with no apparent subsequent children, which fits that wrong 1911 couple.

The Parker fammily posted for 1911 is not connected. It's a separate sheet, accurately transcribed on FMP.

Ancestry have messed it up.
