not sure about the last 2

Does the marriage certificate give Reuben's occupation - I know you have said he is shown as deceased, but often the occupation was recorded.

Also - who are the witnesses - may give a clue

Where did you look, June.?

Do you know about freebmd and Lancsbmd? Both free sites

Also the Lancs OPC site - again, free to all

There aren't any census' after 1911 available to the public - do you mean you found that there were 5 children using bmd records?

Someone made a mistake when completing the register and put Louisa down as Rose initially, which was altered to Louisa but further compounded by the addition of RNB by her name

Have you found them on the 1939 register

I have not been able to find any birth records for Louisa Morris
I have been able to get a copy of her marriage certificate through researching and it has the following information
Married to James Bullock
April 1917. Both aged 18
Married in Salford, Lancashire
Her fathers name is Reuben Morris, it says deceased on the certificate.
They had 5 children 4 boys and 1 girl. Know this from later census records
If anyone can help, I would be grateful
