I think the son is a year old not 14...... there is a mark over the age making it very unclear..... could your Joseph have been married before??

I'm looking for info re Joseph Brown born 1875.
He married to Mary Kelly in St Olaves, Southwark 1895. They had a daughter Elizabeth in 1906.
His occupation was a French Polisher at the time of his marriage.
His father was also called Joseph.
I can't find him on any census.
Here's hoping something rings a bell with you!
Regards,
Kim
