Henry Peter Harris born 1872 and married to Kate Howe - September 1894 Colchester - appears in Ipswich in 1901 (that should give you a clue where to find him in 1911)

Alice Sarah Harris seems to marry Hiram George Horsfield in 1902 (having discounted the other pair listed on free bmd) but so far no other sign of the couple.  ???

Hiram George Horsfield served with the Cameron Highlanders as a Colour Sgt and was discharged in Perth in 1913. A search of ScotlandsPeople  brings up 1 result in 1911 for Hiram Horsfield and another for Alice Horsfield  in the free search. I don't have any credits as I have no Scottish connections so you will need to purchase some if you want to check it out.

Have now read the Service Record which confirms Alice S Harris father Peter Richard as a witness to their marriage.
4 children listed : Charles William 1904 Fort George, Ellen Constance 1905 Arbour Hill , Henry Albert 1907 Inverness , Ella May 1907 Auldearn

Isabella Minnie married Frederick Walter Firmin/Formin  1907. You should be able to find them in 1911 and you may find someone else.

Thanks CB53 found her late this afternoon and also found Winifred May as well. Many thanks
