Any sign of Patrick Francis in 1911?

Sandra, you said she married an Irishman, but there is no mention so far of him born in Ireland. Admittedly Patrick Francis points to an Irish family. And I can't find a Cumberland birth for him.

How about this as a possible for Mary Jane?

That would make her just 16 on marriage.

Would still need her parent's permission to marry, so may have told a lie.

I appreciate this Sandra, but already that census is telling us that she might have been born 3 years later than you suggested, so people need alerting to that to help you find her.
