Trying to find offspring of May Lawson born in Leeds 1902/3. Family had moved down to Leeds from Dumfries in the late 1890s.

EDIT:- to any other helpers! Ignore this first one it's the second 1911 which is the correct one!
Is this the family in 1911

There's also this one from Dumfries, but it's not Leeds? LAWSON, John Head Married M 55 1856 Framework Kniter Dumfries Scotland VIEW LAWSON, Mary Wife Married 32 years F 51 1860 Housekeeper Preston Lancs VIEW LAWSON, Robert Son Single M 19 1892 Gas Stove Driller Dumfries Scotland VIEW LAWSON, May Daughter F 9 1902 School Armley Yorks VIEW RG number: RG14 Piece: 26910 Reference: RG14PN26910 RG78PN1545 RD499 SD3 ED40 SN244 Registration District: Bramley Sub District: Wortley EnumerationDistrict: 40 Parish: Armley and Bramley Address: 8 Ledgards Place County: Yorkshire (West riding)
If it is the first one, then her name was May Lily which will help find a marriage, so could you confirm if either of these are correct.
