The 1901 census seems to be the best place to start they both would have been kids and their parents won't have lied about their ages.

It is pay per view to see the pages but the searches are free and you'll get enough info to not waste money if you do pay.

I think Ethel appears aged 5 at Wednesbury in Staffordshire but it'll cost to get the household though you can see there are 12 Dilworths in Wednesbury:-

 Ann Dilworth  61 Staffs Walsall Stafford Wednesbury  
 Annie Dilworth  16 Staffs Wednesbury Pupil Teacher
 Annie Dilworth  21 Staffs Wednesbury Asst School Mistress
 Annie Dilworth  39 Staffs Wednesbury
 Dorothy Dilworth  8 Staffs Wednesbury  
 Ethel Dilworth  5 Staffs Wednesbury    
 Gertrude Dilworth  11 Staffs Wednesbury    
 Jane Dilworth  14 Staffs Wednesbury  Pupil Teacher
 John Dilworth  40 Staffs Wednesbury Coach Axle Turner
 Joseph Dilworth  2 Staffs Wednesbury    
 Kate Dilworth  18 Staffs Wednesbury  Pupil Teacher
 Olive Dilworth  3D Staffs Wednesbury  

Charle is not so easy to find there is only one William Hops but I'm a bit confused is Charles and apprentice or is the name Apps - there are a lot of Charles Apps.

Cheers,
Pam
