Its confusing...so could a Bowron be her real father but Elizabeth was still married to Tucker? Wonder where Bannister fits in?

Looks like Martha knocked a couple of years off her age in 1911?

I don't see a Tucker / Watson marriage in the timescale.

Watson is also Williams other middle name...sounds a bit fishy to me

Sounds fishy to me too Jax. Both Martha and Mary have given inaccurate birth years in 1911.

In 1891 Martha is a patient and in 1901 a servant in Willesden.

The Canada bit - Richard John son of William and Mary arrived in Canada in 1913 (22 November). I am a bit doubtful about that as William C. W. Bowron (according to the trees on Ancestry) was killed in 1916 during WW1. Richard is the only child mention in that tree. Would a 7 year old go to Canada on his own?
