I cannot find Amy Parker or Amy Birch on 1891 but I did find a death for Amy Parker in Quarter ending June 1886 Blackburn 8e 325

If you are interested enough in this girl you would need to send for her marriage cert.

I'll just cross check that she isn't on 1901
(Can't see her).

Would you like any of these people checking on 1891 or 1901?

Tricia-- I am stunned!!  How on earth do you DO that so quickly ?  I would be delighted to have the other dates for the main characters if you have the time.  I am very pleased that you have solved the puzzle about his mother.
Thank you very much indeed .

1891 - look who has turned up - Amy!  I didn't find her because on the Index she has been incorrectly mistranscribed as Amy Longworth - at least I'm not going blind   What a tangled web these transcribers weave!
