my info came from a family member he says rose and charles had only six children he is the son of one of them in your experience do you think he's wrong and the first family you listed is the one.

I don't know, really!
 
Eventhough Davi(e)s isn't a rare name, I can't see any other family with a daughter Beatrice born ca. 1895, parents Charles and Rose, and siblings that match the names you mentioned  :-\

I had another look at this and in my opinion they must be the family - it would be such a coincidence otherwise! Does anyone remember Charles' occupation? Was it shoemaker?

Maybe all the children didn't survive, or for some reason were estranged from the family and not spoken of?
