Added - There was also a son named Charles baptised Oct 1860 to this couple.

That 1860 Charles must have died as an infant.
Another son named Charles Stuart Watt born Dec 1866.

You might want to consider this birth in Belfast (Antrim). It would fit with him being under age at the time of his marriage, and his age at death.

Robert John HENDERSON born 10 Oct 1864 to parents John HENDERSON and Eliza Jane KIDD

This Robert is the first born of a rather large family.

The parents John and Eliza Jane married in 1863

From the records you will see that John was working as a "winding master" (probably in some Belfast textile factory) for much of his life, but from 1879 and later he is recorded as a labourer.

Mary Watt

Antrim, Culfeightrin, Ireland
Down and Connor
Stewart Watt
Mary Ann McGregor

Names of sponsors are difficult to decipher.
Sponsors possibly Archibald McBride & Mary McCann?

There was also a son named Charles baptised 2 Oct 1860 to this couple. The sponsor's name looks like McANLEY.
Not nit-picking but it could be McAuley (worth considering)?

I have an instance of a McAulay which looked like McAnley although I already knew the surname to be McAulay or variant.

Yes Annie. McAuley might make more sense.
Also think you’re correct with the sponsor names for Mary’s baptism. :)
Milligan - Jardine – Glencross – Dinwoodie - Brown: (Dumfriesshire & Kirkcudbrightshire)

The thing is, the surname McAnley exists i.e. :-\

John and Eliza Jane married in 1863
https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/marriage_returns/marriages_1863/09645/5497850.pdf
I can't make out the 2nd part of the occ. of Charles Henderson (father of John), Cloth (something) but the occ. of John Kidd (father of Eliza Jane) is Damask Weaver.

Well done Carole in finding the 1911 census as Heliotrident had omitted the middle name of Mary Jane which was apparent on a couple of documents!
Edit...Sincere apologies, Mary J 2nd wife mentioned which I'd missed in scrolling  ::)  :-[

It's always best to include all info. previously known to save duplication of effort.

Do I see the 'Rank, Profession or Occupation' for Robert as 'Fine Man'?  ;D

Have you found the other 3 children of the 8 born alive on the 1911 census?
