So Florrie's father is not Arthur Bland then and she is not a sibling of Ada and Joe.  It would be worth asking for a look up in 1901.  We can't do 1911 look ups but there are lots of tips available.
Assistance for 1911 is limited to what may be found in the FREE indexes.

Hi Andrea, I do not know how I put forward Florrie marrying Edward Blythe because Florrie was already 22 in 1911 according to the census . The Florrie I am looking for was a sibling of Ada, Joseph and Nellie, their parents being ArthurSmith and his wife Sarah Ann Bland, by 1911 Ada and Nellie had left the nest. I am sorry about the confusion I may have caused. stoop. Florrie was born in 1889

At least you have eliminated that marriage.    Worth looking on www.freebmd.org.uk to see if there are any other possibles.
