Rosina Alice Symons born c1888

I was wondering if I could get a fresh pair of eyes on this one please.

Rosina gave up my Grandfather (William Symons and thereafter Board) for adoption. My Grandfather was born in 1911.

I thought I found Rosina in the 1901 Census as living in Saltash Cornwall with her Uncle and Aunt, Woodman and Emily Doney.

I was trying to trace her back from the 1891 Census and came across a Rosina living with her father Thomas Symons b1847 at St Dominic Cornwall and mother Hannah Symons b1851 at St Sampson Cornwall. I looked for Thomas Symons in the 1901 Census only to find he was living with Rosie his daughter.

I'm really confused now as to who is the correct Rosina if it is either of them at all!

If anyone could help me I'd be very grateful.
