The suggestion is that first of all Richard married Margaret and that Margaretta Ann Bishop was a child of 'that' marriage.

The 1911 has a column relating to the number of births relating to the current marriage. In the transcription and the added notes, he and Elizabeth to whom he was then married had -Total Children Born Alive 1 - Children Still Living 1
That child was Richard David Vincent Bishop b 1905 born in Talgarth Breconshire

The only way to be absolutley sure is to purchase the relevant records - both marriage certificates and possible the children's birth certifictes.

Could you please explain the context of Lucas?
Where did you get the name come from?
Is it written on a document you have?
Was Lucas mentioned by one of your relatives?

Good idea as stated though, to get those Marriage Certs.

So where does Uncle George fit in?...
