Just be aware that the question on the 1911 census asks:
"Completed years the present marriage has lasted".

So given that figure of 21 years, the marriage would have been in the year ended 2nd April 1890.

many thanks for all replies, I was called away from the computer this morning.

That is the family, I am following Jane Ellen  I just would like to know if her brother was Andrew or Anthony
Have tried 1888+/- 2 yrs for the marriage.
Having another idea, Could Elizabeth have come back to Wales ?
Will hunt for a marriage in Carnarvonshire.

I did have exactly the same idea which is why I tried 1888+/-2 for the marriage.
Thank you both
