Hi Maggsie , That was Quick, William died at 99 or a 100 . He had 8children with Jane .Pity the Census only  has 1901&1911 . Over here in England it starts at  1840 .I would have been able to find out about his first family . Thankyou  very much.

William listed as age 100 in 1901 but ages in census records are often exaggerated-

If this is Jane in 1911 then she's aged 4 years instead of ten-
