I don't think there's any doubt that it's the 'right' Henry...................but that's only an opinion based on the records available online

Deaths Mar 1973 (>99%)
HORNBY VIOLET MARSHALL 6AP1895 BATTLE 5H 55

Yes that is the 1911 census I've got

But as you say the death has his wife Violet M Metcalfe this is what I'm trying to prove it's the same person I'm hoping if I get the photos f the graves it might have an inscription that proves who they are. I've not looked for Violet's death ?

No sign in 1911 on Ancestry - must have been missed. Have tried searching only for forenames, and............................... ZILCH!

Hi
I have a Violet Marshall Metcalfe born 1895 Leads to a John Metcalfe 1870 Leeds and a Florence ?? born 1871 Victoria Australia in the 1901 census they are living in Leeds Yorkshire with son Carlyle b 1891 Australia and Eveline b 1900 Leeds
I can't find them in 1911

I think I've found them in 1939 census wondering if they went back to Australia

If they did they must have come back again as I think Violet had a child in 1914 and I think she married a Henry Hornby in 1916

trying to sort another of my Hornby ancestors out Henry was married to Alice Freer Had 2 children she died 1914, if I have the right death for Henry he died 1938 but he was married to Violet M Metcalfe had a daughter Helen 1917 , but their was another daughter Marion born 1914 registered to Violet Metcalfe

I hoping that finding the 1911 Census might help to sort it out
