Or.

Henry Vye married Ethel May
The marriage broke up
He started a relationship with Annie Elizabeth
Hence why there are no children born earlier than 1907 ( and they were twins so not the full 9 months needed)
When they filled in the 1911 they put Ethel’s name to fit the years married but Annie’s birth place.

That’s exactly my line of thought  :)

Baptism 1st June 1884 Stretton on Fosse gives fathers name as David, mother Eliza

In 1901 David and Eliza are living in West Malvern


There is a 1908 marriage between an Eric Cantlon Simmons and an Ethel May V. Kimble.
In 1911 they appear to be living in Chelsea, and Ethel's birthplace is given as West Malvern. She is said to be 24 years old.
