Mystery 3rd Child of George and Ellen Barnes

[rutht22000]

On the 1911 census, George declares that he has 3 children - one living, two deceased.

George and Ellen (nee Colebourne) married on 2 August 1894 at St James, Toxteth Park.

A daughter Ellen was born on Christmas Day 1894 and another daughter Georgina Martha on 18 March 1896; both baptised at St Philemon, Toxteth Park.

I know one of the deceased children is Ellen as her death is registered in March Quarter 1895.  Georgina Martha is the living child (she marries in 1918 to an American Soldier, Frederick Gillis and goes back to California with him shortly after), but I have lost the other child of George and Ellen.

He/she is not with the parents on 1901 (unless of course born after 1901 and before 1911)

Thank you
