1911 shows her as 'Head', but married, having been so for 20 years.

Five children, of whom one has died. The four living ones are with her at 3, McKerrell Street, Paisley

Without looking at the mage, I would agree with that one, Maddie.

The 1910 Coldstream one I posted earlier is obviously wrong, as Susan's still married in 1911 (though censuses aren't always correct!)
