Edward Boon b. 1882, married Mida Wilkin b, 1882 Cleethorpes in 1903. Mida is shown on the 1911 census as lodging in William Street, Cleethorpes, with her children Alec, b. 1904, and Grace, b. 1907. However Mida is shown as emigrating to Canada in July, 1911, with her children Edward b. 1905 and Ellen, b. 1908. (Family Search) GRO records confirm Alec and Grace mother's maiden name as Wilkin.
What have I missed ?
