Thanks for everything so far.  There is a marriage between Emma Jane Harrison (Risley) in 4th qtr 1920 in West Derby to John K Quilliam and the 1939 census confirms this and lists 2 sons George E and Alexander.  When you check this back to the 1911 census it says John and Emma have been married for 13 years but I cannot find a marriage reference.  It also lists a father in law as Samuel Disley.  Now I am even more confused.  Any Further advice?

Search for a death of Emma's 1st husband anytime between her 2 marriages. Not an easy task with a common name William Harrison. Try divorce records too. Look for a prior marriage of John Quilliam as well.
1st marriage must have been extremely short-lived. Perhaps it was a marriage of convenience or a "shotgun weddding". Maybe Emma wasn't sure which man was father of Samuel and she married the wrong one. It would be interesting to see Samuel's birth certificate to find out exactly what's on it, when he was born and if John Quilliam was named as father. 
Look for prior connections between John Quilliam and Emma's family and William Harrison and Emma's family and between John Quilliam and William Harrison.
A man in my FT died 6 weeks after he married Ann Bonney in 1824. 10 years later his younger brother married a woman called Ann Bonney. No further information so I don't know if it was the same woman.

My grandparents also misrepresented facts about their marriage on 1911 census. They'd both been married before and each had a child from 1st marriage who were on census with my GF's surname.

I see.
Perhaps just an error in recording -it is the same year and quarter as the marriage.
