Must check. (Edit: no - but there are 2 new children: Rose age 9 and Florence G age 4)

In the meantime this could be a birth registration:

Sydney Thomas Bassett
Sep 1900 Liskeard 5c 39

Polly dies in 1904 and William H Bassett seems to remarry the following year (to possibly Elizabeth Mildren).

I've finally found Sid in 1911, staying with grandma Merina Hodge:
Sidney Hocking Basset age 10

Meanwhile, dad William H Bassett seems to be in the same household as an Elizabeth age 39, an Edith age 9 and a Garfield age 4 (who was probably registered as Thomas Garfield H Bassett).

William Bassett
Birth:  26 APR 1801   Morval, Cornwall, England
Death:  1883   
Parents: John Bassett  Family  / Mary Lyssom     
Marriage: Margey Hocken  1822  Cornwall
Was this member-submitted? Seeing how they used Bassett and Hocking, I have my doubts that John and Margety ever married ... although John's birth was registered as Bassett  :P

Just to make sure I have got it, are we saying that this William H Bassett
married Polly Hodge who gave birth to Sidney H Bassett; WHB then re-married  Elizabeth.

Sidney H Bassett married Beatrice Maud Hooper wwho gave birth to Sidney Charles Bassett - QED?
