By 1911 she is a widow having had 14 children of whom nine are still living. 1911 oldest two still in home and added Percy (1896), Reginald (1897), Arthur (1900) and Edward (1904).

Thank you Mike. You led me to Ancestry trees and indeed there are several other children there, but still no one has 1901.

I haven't found them in 1901, but they were still at the 1891 address when daughter was christened:

Harriet Florence Bates
Record Type: Baptism
Baptism Date: 8 Jan 1895
Father's Name: Arthur Edward Bates
Mother's Name: Margaret Bates
Parish or Poor Law Union: Teddington St Peter and St Paul
Borough: Richmond upon Thames
Register Type: Parish Registers

Born 9/10/1887, father a carpenter of 6 Fulwell Terrace. Though I've no idea why she was christened but not the other children - there's also this one which I think is the dead child - again address was the same:

Robert Richard Bates
Record Type: Baptism
Baptism Date: 3 May 1892
Father's Name: Arthur Bates
Mother's Name: Margaret Bates
Parish or Poor Law Union: Teddington St Peter and St Paul
Borough: Richmond upon Thames
Register Type: Parish Registers

Born 5/10/1890 - underneath I think it says "private", but don't know what that means.

The only thing I can suggest is to get Arthur Jack's birth certificate, to get an address then try an address search.

Births Mar 1900 (>99%)
Bates Arthur Jack Brentford 3a 82

The family, which confirms middle names are at 7 Bayham Road, Ealing in 1928. According to the ERs - Margaret, Arthur Jack, Edward Ernest, Robert Loudoun and Harriet Florence Loudoun.

I've tried school admissions, christenings and marriages but no luck in finding anything other than the 2 christenings already posted.

Thanks to all for the new info. No question of getting certificate as relationship is distant. My tree on GR is about 6500 and my home tree up to over 27,000. When I finally put this on, maybe a relative of these people will contact me.

Many, many thanks
