1921 Census "status"  Any other options other than "single" and "married"?

My g/mother appears as head.  Why did she not add widow?

Column B is headed 'relationship to head of household'

Column E is headed 'marriage or orphanhood'.    Anyone aged 15 and should should be recorded as either single, married, widowed or divorced.

I feel quite disappointed, I have searched where my grandparents lived and nothing comes up, my father and most of his siblings should be there , no sign of any of them, will have another check later

I've only searched my father in the '21 census and it has cleared up one problem but created several more. I knew he and his two siblings were born out of wedlock, but I found a possible marriage for his mother in 1920, but the certificate gave a different name for her father so I discounted it. The census shows my father as a visitor, and his sister as an adopted daughter of another family at their address. Looking at the marriage certificate again I see she gave this address as her home and one of the witnesses was the occupant shown in '21. So the marriage of Edith Mary Coomber in Devonport is confirmed, but where on earth did she and her husband go and where is her third child Thomas William Henry Coomber who was born in 1916? Why does one mystery always create two more?

I am finding a few people not showing
One I can understand, mum's bigamous aunt who newly remarried maybe trying to keep a low profile.
However the same ladies brother does not appear, though by finding the rest of his household I fund him
His step daughter and her husband were listed.
I have got about 6 images, to get many more will wait for the records to be free
Just got direct ancestors and some where I am trying to solve some problem

I had the same problem with my great grandparents but found them eventually. Their name had been transcribed wrong.

I looked for my great grandmother, and could not find her or her two unmarried children who would be with her at the family bakery shop.
I found them by searching by address.
Obviously only works if you know the address
