Winifred Hobbs Edwards was the daughter of William Edwards and Sarah Ann Slote It seems Winifred Hobbs Edwards was born 4 Jun 1901 Ramsey but her birth was not registered until the next quarter
Maybe this because her mother died during or shortly after giving birth - her death was registered Jun qtr 1901 age 42
Maybe she went to stay with the Hobbs family because of her mothers death - or maybe she was just visiting at the time of the census -  a young member of the Hobbs family was staying with William Edwards and his new wife on a later census (Frederick Harry Hobbs b 15 jun 1906 son of Frederick George Hobbs and Lucy Jane Clarke) So the Hobbs and Edwards family must have stayed very close
This is Winifred Hobbs Edwards family in 1891 and 1901 (at the time of 1901 census Winifred's mother would have been very pregnant with her

Annie Onyett was married to Arthur Onyett- marriage Dec qtr 1892 Huntingdon Arthur Onyett Annie Emmington - Arthur died and Annie went to live with widower William Edward and they married Dec qtr 1902 3b 663

As Winifreds mother was Sarah Ann Slote and in one of your earlier posts you were enquiring about the Slote family -could the Hobbs connection be through her??
