Maybe Emma was missed off the census return or was given the family name if she was in service?

Yes thats the mother but minus the daughter that I am looking for .The E in this case is for Emma's sister Eliza.

Thanks Adeline
Mary Ann Hales never married Alfred Stagg.
Emma Eliza may have been in service,she would have been twelve at the time.I can't find her with relatives,
It is quite possibly a transcription error but I have tried every misspelling that I can think of.My eyes are now glazing over.

A Stagg tree on Ancestry has the information that in the 1911 census, Emma's mother, Mary A Hales, is described as the wife of Alfred Edwin Stagg, married 15 years, but that when Alfred registered her death in 1916 he gave her name as Mary Ann Louise Hales widow of John Hales, tinplate worker. Eliza Hales, born 1890, was with Mary A and Alfred in 1911.

Thanks
There are many Soilluex researchers but not one of us, after years of trying, have found Emma on the 1901 census.I was hoping for a bit of a miracle,it's amazing how many times you all have come up trumps when I've asked for help.
Mary Ann did move in with A E Stagg but only daughter Eliza and son F J were with her on the 1901 census.

It looks like her mother was a widow in 1891. Do you know whether Mary A Hales remarried? If she did then it is possible that in 1901 Emma was known by her stepfathers surname.

I also note that in 1891 Emma's birthplace is shown as Walworth rather than Southwark.

I have tried looking for all three on Ancestry and FMP but without success. I see that Emma Eliza appears on several trees on Ancestry, together with photos, but none of them includes a 1901 census entry for her.
