Missing from census

Hi can anyone help me please?

I have found my great grandfather as a chil with his parents in 1871 & 1881 but they all dissappear in 1891.
My gr grandfathers name was William Lovely (1869). 1871 He is with his parenta William(1835) & Mary at Pan bank South Shields. In 1881 He is with His Parents William & Hannah (mothers name Mary Hannah) at 11 Todds court South Shields.
I know my Great grandfather married Alice Middleton in 1891 I can't find him at all on 1891 census but his parents can't be found either.
I've picked William (1869) back up on 1901 census with Alice at Palmerstone Street South Shields. But theres still no trace of his parents.

Does anyone have any ideas? I cant find a death for the older William & I know Mary Hannah didn't die until 1913.

Thanks for the replies but thats not him. That Willaim is one of his cousins.
I really can't think where they could be!
My William was William Wilson Lovely (1869) his children were George 1894 James 1896 & John 1900.
William (1869) 's father was also william!(1835)
As William (1869) married in 1891 I'm assuming they could be on honeymoon somewhere when 1891 census was taken but I don't know whats happened to his parents William & Mary Hannah, they seem to have dissappeared from 1881.
Thanks for looking

Do you know what Date William and Alice got married?

I don't have their marriage cert yet, but I do know they married 25/6/1891 at Holy Trinity so they cant have been on honeymoon as I thought that may have been an explanation.
Thank you Linda

Thanks Linda
Yes thats Mary Hannah. I was just about to add a post giving the rest of the childrens names when I noticed you'd found her.
Thank you
I've been going round in circles trying to find her.
You seem to be better at this than me.
