There are lots of Elizabeth Dyer 's on the 1911 census .
Think you need the marriage cert for their ages and fathers named

But that address is where the daughter was born .not necessarily where he came from .

As a railway employee he could have been assigned to a station outside his place of birth or previous address he lived at

Another problem..........if his name was "Henry" but preferred the name "Harry" we don't know if we are looking for a Henry or a Harry on the 1911 census.

If you know what I mean!

If you believe the 1912 marriage is correct, I think you will need to purchase a copy.

When you obtain a copy of the marriage cert, you will be able to tell us how old each of them was, and, if known, their fathers' names and occupations.

With those details to hand, searching for them in 1911 will be be made easier.

You say you are trying to find them in 1911 - which website are you using?

That one was baptised "Harry"........

So would Eva's father not have been recorded as "Harry" on the birth cert?
