I can't find a birth for the second Hannah (born 12 Oct 1893)

But this is likely her death:

Deaths Mar 1895
Thompson Hannah age 1 Hull 9d 197

Gro lists her age as 17 (months)

Well found Chris- that must be it!

So on the 1911 census she's telling the truth when she says her birth place is Wales!

Margy Report 6 Aug 2017 08:50

In the 1901 census William Thompson was 14 born Hull so the family must have been in Hull 1887 living with his mother Mary Ann who is now married to Frank Booth 1901

Margy Report 6 Aug 2017 09:03

I don't think the bigamist is our Mary Ann as she would have had her daughter Alice in 1879 and probably pregnant with Harry born 1881!

All very puzzling!, this 'Marriage'!.
