Interesting. Thomas G isn't with Elizabeth on the 1901. Is this him elsewhere?

SCOTT, Thomas G Head Married M 50 1851 Mantle Cutter Yorkshire
SCOTT, Alice M Daughter Single F 22 1879 Vellum Sewer Rotherhithe, London
SHIPMAN, Emily A Cousin Widow F 52 1849 Cook (Domestic) London
HEDGES, Jemima Cousin Single F 50 1851 Vellum Sewer Bethnal Green, London

Piece: 282 Folio: 123 Page: 5
Registration District: Bethnal Green
Civil Parish: Bethnal Green

The 1911 says they only had one daughter so who is Alice M?

Just working back for clues. Elizabeth is born 1861 per the 1901 census (Thomas George must be away somewhere):

SCOTT, Elizabeth Wife Married F 40 1861 Dressmaker Hackney, London
SCOTT, Louise Daughter F 8 1893 Hackney, London

Piece: 360 Folio: 9 Page: 10
Registration District: St Saviour
Southwark Civil Parish: Christchurch Southwark

Address: 94, Ponsonby Buildings, Christchurch Southwark County: London

(The address matches that of Louisa's baptism)

Yes, I'd already found that!

As previously asked, what research have you done already? Have you looked for their marriage? Or the birth of Louisa? (Her birth certificate would give you Elizabeth's maiden name which is going to be needed in order to find out more about her).

Hello Colin, it's not an uncommon name. You'll have to give us some further information like when did these events happen and in what part of the world.?
