The James Richard Fox in Ireland was an Engineer he had two children in Co Tyrone

Mother of children was Annie Elizabeth (formerly Lee).  Hilda was Hilda Emma. Her name has been transcribed as Eilda; I've submitted amendment.

ok ok ok...... so how come you guys find the Irish records?? Because every time I typed into the search on the Irish genealogy it came up with 'not known'.

Hands up - you guys are awesome!!!!! THANK YOU SO SO VERY MUCH  :) :) :)

Anyone know about when Annie Elizabeth Lee/Fox was married and died? again - I cant find alot on her.  It is possible she was born around 1851, apparently she was young when she had her children.

James Richard Fox 1st wife Emma Steere d.1869 buried in Battersea (London). Enter Annie Elizabeth Lee... James and Annie's 1st child together was born in Tyrone Ireland 1871 - Hylda Emma Agnes, on the birth registry James was a mechanic in Ireland. Ive searched for the marriage certificate but to no avail, I also cant find when she died. Any ideas please??

Thank you :)

Sidney's age is out by 5 yrs on this one but he appears to be the only one of that name born in Ireland living in England

You may be putting in too much information or being too precise. For instance, I only fill in registration district box when I'm certain I know correct district. If too many results appear from whole of Ireland I select a district which I think is most likely from list at side of page; if no result in that district I select another possible.  I put in a span of years unless I'm 100% sure the event was registered in a particular year. Sometimes I'll search for a surname in a district in a time-frame if I suspect forename may be different from what I think it is. Other people will have different strategies.
We learn by experience. I've learned things through helping on this and other forums and noticing how other people find out stuff and how they collaborate. RootsChatters generally choose to reply to topics about which they have some knowledge. If your topic had been about Wales for example, I would have clicked "Ignore topic".

1891 census:

Address: Ferndale Road Lambeth London
Head: Annie Fox, Widow, aged 38, born Surrey, occ: Machinist
Dau: Annett Fox, aged 13, born Surrey
Son Ernest Fox, aged 6, born Surrey

Possible death for Annie:
Deaths Sep 1897 
Fox    Annie Elizabeth    aged 42    Lambeth    1d   317   

Death for James:

Deaths Jun 1881 
Fox    James Richard    44    Wandsworth    1d   318

Birth for Ernest:
FOX, ERNEST        mother's maiden name LEE      
GRO Reference: 1883  D Quarter in WANDSWORTH  Volume 01D  Page 635

so James Richard Fox not the biological father of Ernest
