It looks like little Elizabeth was abandoned by Mazilla (now married to W Whitehead) and left with her grandparents, probably not so unusual in those days (or even now!).

A big thank you to all who have given information, especially 'rootgatherer'. It has been most useful indeed.

A pleasure to help Geoff.

Hello again everyone,

Can anybody find what happened to Henry and Catherine (nee Whitehead) Miles and their son Willam Henry. In 1891 they're living in Gosford Street Coventry:
MILES Henry Head M M 35 Groom(Em'ee) Warwickshire - Coventry
MILES Catherine Wife M F 31 Oxfordshire -Brackley
MILES William Henry Son - M 12 Scholar Warwickshire - Coventry

But I don't have the 1901 census and can't find them at all in 1911.

Thanks,
Geoff

Not seeing Catherine and Henry yet in 1901 but perhaps this could be William?

Thanks. Does it make any difference if Catherine is spelt Catharine or even Katherine/Katharine (I'm thinking of Mazilla's many 'names').

Geoff

I wouldn't put too much emphaises on the spelling as most peole could not read or write then.
