Alice Edwards

[AR.Usher]

Looking for the birth of Alice Edwards

She shows in the 1911 census, living in Tettenhall, Staffordshire with Thomas Edwards, Daniel Edwards, and Margaret Edwards. She is 12, which would put an estimated birthdate of around 1899. It also says she was born in Tettenhall

1911 census
Thomas HEAD age 79 WIDOW
Daniel age 36 SINGLE
Margaret DAUGHTER age 30 SINGLE
Alice GRANDDAUGHTER age 12

Thomas Edwards wife is Sarah Jane Pulley
Alice is not shown in the 1901 census for Thomas, who is living at the same place as in 1911

Thomas Edwards and his wife Sarah nee Pulley had 9 children that I found, have you checked who the sons married, or perhaps one of the older daughters had a child?

Esther Ann 1863 (aka Ann)
Thomas 1866
Harriet 1868
Christopher 1870
Alice 1871
Daniel 1874
Ellen 1876
William John 1878   (aka John)
Margaret 1881   (1881 census shown as female 16 days old)

There is an Alice Vera Edwards birth a year earlier in 1898 - mmn Ingram

There is a Thomas EDWARDS 35, bricklayers labourer and his wife Lucy in Tettenhall in 1901 with a daughter Alice, 3. A possibility - as amondg has the eldest son Thomas born 1866.

Modified to add:
Interestingly, it appears the other child on the 1901 census - Marion EDWARDS born c 1895, Worcester - is not with parents in 1911 - if this is the correct Marion. At the home of Martha EDWARDS 41, born Culmington, Salop ("neice") in Tettenhall.
