Dates of birth given on census records are not necessarily correct, Seagate.

At best, they're based on the age given for the person when the census was taken, so can be a year earlier or later than you expect, depending on when the person's birthday fell.

And they can be completely wrong! Don't take them as accurate.

ArgyllGran

ArgyllGran Report 28 Mar 2015 15:42

Obviously, he was born before the baptism date in 1900 - certainly not in 1901.

safc also gave you the birth record, in the 2nd quarter of 1900.

Therefore he was most likely born in April 1900 - or possibly late March.

He appears aged 1 on the 1901 census so Alfred Victor Mummery birth fits.

hi
just to make sure that i have got right the ellen that died in 1903 was alfred mother and not ellen smith?

Gritty

Not sure who Ellen Smith is?

Possible for Charles first marriage:

First name(s) Charles
Last name Mummery
Name note -
Marriage year 1896
Marriage date 25 Dec 1896
Marriage place St Stephen Church, Walworth, Surrey, England
Father's first name(s) Charles
Father's last name Mummery
Spouse's first name(s) Ellen
Spouse's last name Cockrell
Spouse's father's first name(s) Alfred
Spouse's father's last name Cockrell
Place Walworth
County Surrey

If this is correct, the Ellen that died in 1903 (Alfred's mother), was Ellen, nee Cockrell.

Charles then married Ellen Edwards (nee Smartt) in 1910
