A., 12, Scholar born Cirencester, Gloucestershire, Ethel E., 9, Scholar born Portland, Dorset, Mary K., 6, Scholar born Portland, Dorset, and Albert V., 3, Scholar born Portland, Dorset.
From the 1901 England Census for Portland, Dorset (RG13 Piece 1997 Folio 25 Page 41) Clarence, 4 (sic), born Portland, Dorset, was with his mother Elizabeth, widow, 46, from Corfe Gate, Dorset, at 15 Easton, Portland, Dorset, England.

From the 1911 England Census for Portland, Dorset (RG14PN12369 RG78PN703 RD263 SD3 ED6 SN340) Clarence, 19, General Labourer born Portland, Dorset, was with his mother Elizabeth, widow, 55 (sic), from Weymouth, Dorset, at 15 Easton Street, Portland, Dorset, England. With him were his married sister Ethel Northover, 23 (sic), born Westminster, London (sic), and brother-in-law Richard Northover, 26 (sic), General Labourer born Bridport, Dorset.
?i?Note: Many of the figures just do not add up! Elizabeth's eldest daughter was born in 1868 yet on the 1911 census she claims her marriage has lasted 27 years, yet her husband died in 1898. This gives 30 years of marriage up to the time of his death or 43 years in total. Also, they had 11 children and yet only 5 total children born alive and 5 children still living was entered on the census. Elizabeth was born about 1850 making her 61 not 55, Clarence was born about 1890 making him 21 not 19, Ethel was born in 1881 making her 30 not 23, Richard was born about 1874 making him 37, not 26, and Ethel and Richard married in 1900 so they had been married 11 years not 5.?/i?
