Looks like the Ann we found in 1881 is not your lass ...

Marriages Mar 1881 
 
HAYWOOD  William    Mt.Bosworth Vol 7a Page 107   
WHETTON  Mary     do do do


:(

Do you think that the name Ann was a mistake? They have made a mistake with name on the earlier census haven't they with Jane Ellen?
Orton on the hill--- Haywood, Cart,
Bolton--- McGreavy, Brophy, Grant, Burrows, Taylor, Clarke
Lichfield--- Whetton,

I'd go with it - subject to belt-and-braces with Marriage Cert - and one of the kids certs to check maiden name if you really really want to be sure ....

re Ann vs Mary on 1881 - who knows ! I've seen the strangest things on a return. The enumerator may have misunderstood, may have copied his schedule incorrectly into the formal return (the image you see on Ancestry) and and and ...  :)

We dont know the actual date of the marriage 1Q 1881 - I'm just assuming it had to be before the census (Census was taken on the night of 3 April 1881) .... and people do get enumerated in 2 places at once very occasionally ...

All the other points about missing daughters from 91 to 01 can probably be explained ...

Liz - the other 'mystery' - you mentioned 2 Jane Ellens on the 1871.

The 2nd one is an UNNAMED son I'd say - it isnt a 'ditto' under Jane Ellen, just a line  :)

And in 1881 a 10 year old George C would seem to confirm it .... 8)
