Lucetta's father is not stated to be deceased on her marriage certificate, but that doesn't mean he was necessarily still alive. It just depends whether the question was asked or not.

Regarding her birthplace, the 1911 and 1901 census are consistent:

Forget what Mike says about needing to buy her marriage certificate, the information I posted is taken from the actual certificate which is on Ancestry. Let me know if you want a copy.

Regarding Lucetta's birthplace, Bilston and Dudley registration districts have been interchangeable over the years.
