Hmmmmmm, I may be changing my mind about which Alexander F Walker Elizabeth married - I can't post the 1911 census details on here, but have a look at the image of Elizabeth Finney bn c. 1881 in Ellastone, living in Wooton and Ramshorn, Derbyshire.

And if I am right about the 1911 family, this is Alexander Walker in 1901 RG13; Piece: 3238; Folio: 64; Page: 7
