Who names their child Aunt Jane?!

[anne_p]

I tried to respond last night but RC stopped working.

The 1901 census that has been posted shows Robert Cowan with his 2nd wife.

He is found on the 1891 census in Glasgow with his 1st wife.   
Name   Age
Robert Cowan   27 B Ireland
Jane Cowan   27 Wife B EDINBURGH
Emily Cowan   5 dau b Glasgow
James Cowan   3 son b Ireland
Ann Jane Cowan   1 dau b Glasgow
Robert Noble   32 boarder
Edward Baldwin   24 boarder
Richard Wilcox   29 boarder

I assume that Jane died shortly after because on 12 May 1893 he married Selena Hunter ( Groni search) and is reflected in the 1901 census originally posted.

By 1911, Selena is widowed but still lives in Co Down.
Every child shows place of birth as: Belfast !

The births of all the younger children can be located on Groni. All registered in Belfast and all show mother's name as: Hunter
Margaret, Robert,  John, Edward and Maria.

Edit:
If Selena was widowed by 1 Apr 1911 then the only potential death for her husband reg in Belfast is: 24 Feb 1911  age 47

As the child Ann Jane does not show on the 1911 return I wonder of she died.
Is she Ann Cowan  who died 24 Jan 1903 age 13.
Groni does not provide a middle name but, the index on Ancestry does.
The corresponding index shows  :Ann Jane Cowan
