Yes, my William George Owen did marry Agnes Winifred Carney in 1911. I did come upon that BMD record for a William George Owen mmn Hughes but also found a death record in the same quarter of 1880 and he wasn't with his parents in 1881 (they were William Henry John Owen and Eliza mmn Hughes), so we were able to rule that one out today.
The 1861 census and 1911 census you mentioned are the correct family ones. This has definitely been a head-scratcher.

I believe that is likely the same Ann Owen. We had been wondering why she wasn't in the 1881 Census with William, her husband. We also noticed the Rosa Henrick living with them in 1871 and couldn't figure out who she might be? It's interesting that this 1881 Census with Ann Owen has another Henrick visiting at the same time.
Now I'm even more intrigued. What was the connection to the Owens and the Henricks?

Yes, they did emigrate to Canada. Hamilton, Ontario, to be exact. He got a job at Otis Elevator, in Hamilton, but that company no longer exists.
If the date of birth is known, it is listed on the death certificate. We don't have a copy of the death certificate at this time, but have sent messages to a couple of my husband's aunts to see if they may have a copy or could get one.

one of those trees is my husband's tree. His is blahut2. The other is mine, under my dad's ancestry id sshipley126. So you found them both. lol
I've been trying to figure out how we came to obtain the 30 July 1880 date of birth. The information likely came from my husband's grandfather or one of my husband's aunts.
