Margaret A Ainsworth   34
Frank Ainsworth   11
William H Ainsworth   8
Bell Ainsworth   5
May Ainsworth   1
Stanley Ainsworth 1 (My Father)

Margaret Ann Ainsworth   43
Frank Ainsworth   22
William Hy Ainsworth   18
Bell Ainsworth   15
May Ainsworth   11

My father died in Blackpool Lancashire in 1979
I am sure he had a brother called Frank who emigrated to New Zealand but I'm not sure the Frank Ainsworth I have the information from New Zealand on is the correct one. 
Certainly if Frank married an Irish girl it would have explained the family rift. He would have been disowned by the rest of the family. My Irish school friend wasn't allowed in the house!!

I now have the marriage certificate for Frank Ainsworth and Susan Baxter. I've posted details on the NZ board. http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=675680.new#new
Her father was an Alexander Baxter (Mechanic) and her age is given as 23 which fits with the details on the Irish census returns you kindly found were definitely correct.
