I know that Rose listed as his wife is living with Robert Luck in the 1901 census

1911 census (Wimbledon) says Robert Henry and Rose Luck married 13 years.
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XW8Y-HRD

Possible marriage
Dec 1897 Kensington 1a 397
Edwardes, Rose Florence
Luck, Robert Henry

The other two names on 1a 397, Ernest Joseph Rust and Ellen Langston pair off (census, birth registrations of children, mother Langston)

Have you got this marriage certificate?

Hi sorry for the delay, Rose Edwards and Robert Luck I have their marriage, I'll have to look it out.
Prince Levi (edwards) Luck is my Great Grandfather, His daughter Anne Florence Luck is my grandmother.
I now have the first birth cert and there is no name or sex of the child but the parents are listed as Rose Edwards (nee Harman) and Frank Edwards. I will get the other cert soon.

I have a theory, Rose was a Seamstress and maid, Around the time Prince was born Frank Edward's father had the Architects business they had near Spittlefield market, London dissolved.
There has always been rumours of a black cab or black coach coming to Rose with money, which I now believe was from Frank Edwards before they lived together.
Prince Edwards told my grandmother that he was put in Barnardo's, I ow believe that was the school at Westminster.
There are more stories about Prince Levi Victor Luck, one I am working on was that some MP's called him a bastard while he was in Malta, Where he promptly pushed them into the Valetta harbour. We know he was there. Also there is some conflict with he war records as in the second world war he says he had never been in the forces.
So you all know a bit more about Prince Levi I've attached a picture of him.
Thanks for all your help, every turn seems to make more mystery.

Hi there
Thanks for the info, and for the splendid photo of Prince, it's good to see him. Taken in Malta!
Is the occupation given for Frank on the cert the same as in the census?

HI
Frank was a carpenter on the birth cert, I realise I went off track explaining my theory.
The different occupations were due to the architects being dissolved, He had to find work to support his family and I believe he was disowned by his father due to getting Rose, a mere servant, pregnant with Prince. By the way it is said Rose had three brothers Prince, Levi and Victor and that's where Prince got his names

My main problem is Frank Edwards goes missing somewhen after 1891 as Rose is with Robert Henry Luck in the 1901
So I'm trying to find a death so I can find where he ends up, did he die as on the marriage of Rose and Robert she is listed as a widow, but I cannot find a marriage of Rose and Frank. A total mystery
Thanks for your help
