Firstly welcome to Rootschat  ;D 

May I ask which country we are talking about?  I cannot see a marriage in England and Wales in 1914 between Acland and Wilson.

There is a family tree on Ancestry - but it all needs verification - which says that Louis Joseph Acworth and Elizabeth "Lilly" Bryant married.  There is a marriage in the Croydon Registration District in September quarter of 1874 where Louis Joseph Acworth and Elizabeth Maud Bryant appear on the same page. 

The tree also states that the family sailed for Australia in 1886, arriving in Brisbane 22 September 1886 on the "Almora".

If you know the Australian side of things, I'll ask the Moderator to leave this where it is  :-[ :-[

Here is the family in 1881 , incorrectly transcribed as Aiworth :

and here is a link to  the relevant Passenger List ( you will need to scroll down to the surname , click on the ship's name and then find the entry ) :
