Can't find family on 1911 census

Lorraine Report 26 Oct 2012 17:21

Having problems locating the following family - can anybody help as ancestory is free at the mo.
Charles Marshfield b 1881 Bournemouth
Teresa Marshfield b 1879 Ireland
Thomas Marshfield b1908 Anglesey

At the end of 1911 they were living in Plymouth. Charles was in the army so might not have been with Teresa and Thomas. Also there is scandal in that Thomas was not Charles true son (different fathers name on birth cert) even though Teresa and Charles were married at the time and had a previous son together who had died. Their next son was born in december 1911 so they must have still been together. Have searched and searched and can't find them and Marshfield is not a very common name. Would really appreciate a second eye on this one.
Many thanks
