We await the arrival of the marriage cert with bated breath
Meantime, It seems likely, Frederick and Beatrice had a child born 1912:
FreeBMD
Arthur BENTON - Jun Qtr 1912 -
Kings Norton, mother's maiden name: TIMMS
This lends further weight to that 1911 Census which would put Frederick born about 1881.
I just rechecked the 1911 Census Index, to try establish the pob stated (one has to enter in the term precisely as used in the index or else it comes up no match).
I get a match with this informationFrederick BENTON
Born 1881
AstonHead of House
Married 1902
Residing Kings Norton parish, Worcestershire
So I feel fairly confident this is your Frederick's line:
