Why am I unable to find a specific address on 1911 census?

George Henry Holmes and Fanny Holmes and family where living at 113 Catherines Cross Darlaston,Staffordshire before and after 1911.

I have searched each page for Catherines Cross but I am unable to locate number 113.
Anyone know why?

Thank you
Linda

Thank you for your time Somerset Girl.

I have just been checking the deaths myself.

This family has proved to be a nightmare to find

In 1901 Fanny is using her maiden name of Bliss and living with her parents in Catherines Cross which states she is their daughter in law. but what happened to hubby in 1901 I have no idea.I'm blowed if I can find him.

Never mind had a good day at records office today and found quite a bit on this family.

Once again thank you.
Linda
