The 1901 entry you have shows Robert Morris b 1876 Oswestry

The 1881 has 3 possibilities

Robert Morris b 1875 Oswestry but father was Richard

Robert Morris b 1876 Llanymenech Shropshire father Edward aged 47 b Llanymenech

Robert Morris b 1876 West Felton but living with Morris grandparents

Hopefully the marriage cert will arrive early next week and then I'll know.
Still the whole family is quite complex.

Marriage certificate has arrived today.

Alice Jane Dulson married Robert Morris at Whitchurch registry office. So the parish records would have been unhelpful.
Fathers named as Robert Dulson and Edward Morris.
