I have found Philip and Ann Higgins in 1901 in Fleet Hampshire.

A clue on the page; at the top is a widow Ellen Higgins aged 65 with step son Harry aged 38.

Not sure yet how they fit in but I will save this page and look round the neighbourhood later on.

Thanks for your help, everyone.

I must move about; I'm frozen hear!

Thanks Quinsgran

Yes that is Richard's birth.

I looked for him with no success in 1901 and 1911.

On looking at the 1891 census again, I think Samuel Higgins and his sister Ellen Lovett are living next door to the Griffins and are actually not related at all.

I had another look at the image and I think you're right Choccy.

It seems that someone assumed that the family belonged to the Griffin's. It does say 'Head' in the relation column for Samuel.

I agree, Florence does seem to be the bride.

jansmith - that's brilliant!

Just Ellen to find now.

It does look as though Ellen and Richard separated then.

I had tried all spellings of Lovett/Lovell and Lov*

Thanks again!!!
