Hi Chinacharlie,
Is this the death registration?
William Childs age 53
Jun 1894 Luton 3b 226
There's a marriage in Dec 1889 for Lucy Radwell to possibly William Childs , Luton 3b 910
1891 census
RG12/1273 12 17
Luton, Bedfordshire
28 Bailey St
3 rooms occupied
William Child, head, 44, Retired Hat Merchant, b. St Albans Herts
Lucy, wife, 28, b. Upper Winchenden Herts
Ruth, dau, 4, b. Wings Bucks*
William, son, 1, b. Luton Beds
His age is a bit out - maybe because his wife was much younger?
*10 years later, this girl seems to be called Sarah Radwell (unless they are 2 different girls)

Earlier censuses seem to show him from a family of wheelwrights, if this is the same man (his marriage cert would confirm his father's name):

Jesse Childs, head, 51, Wheelwright, b. Herts Elstree
Elizabeth, wife, 50, b. Mddx London
Mary, mother, 80, b. Herts Sa*****ridge
David, son, wid, 22, Wheelwright, b. St Albans
William, son, unm, 20, Wheelwright, b. do.
