One of the trees states marriage was 7/12/1872 Coleraine, Londonderry, N.I. to Mary Jane Freeman.   Since she was Irish and children born Ireland seems correct.

Marriage index on Ancestry and they are 2 of the 6 people shown.

Daniel and Catherine 1891 574/ 3/ 17 Port Glasgow Renfrew

POTTER DANIEL 31
POTTER CATHERINE JANE 27
POTTER DANIEL 8
POTTER HENRIETTA 6
POTTER WILLIAM 5
POTTER FANNY 3
POTTER ELLEN 0

1901 574/ 1/ 17:

POTTER DANIEL 41
POTTER CATHERINE JANE 36
POTTER DANIEL 18
POTTER HERRIETTA 16
POTTER WILLIAM 15
POTTER FANNY 13
POTTER ELLEN 10
POTTER GEORGE 8
POTTER MARY 3
POTTER ANNIE 1

I can’t see Daniel or Catherine on the 1911 census. I can’t see a death for Daniel. This may be Catherine’s death:

POTTER CATHERINE JANE 38 1902 574/ 231 Port Glasgow

I wonder if she died in child birth:

POTTER CATHERINE 77 mmn SHIELDS 1980 643/ 156 Renfrew

Possible other daughters’ deaths:

POTTER FANNY 57 1945 574/ 163 Port Glasgow
POTTER ANNIE 86 mmn SHIELDS 1986 642/ 245 Port Glasgow
