Henry and Johanna got married after 1901 census - the thoughtless people! You might need to get cert to locate Henry before this.

This is speculation really, but if this Johanna turned out to be "our" Johanna's mother, it would fit with the child (and presumably her sister) being with their aunt in the 1891 census (above)
