I had this problem.... I looked for gaps in births & then went to Freebmd & looked for possibles to fit the gaps whilst at the same time taking into account the family names of previous generations. Of course the only way to be positive then is to get the birth certs,... Hope this helps.

All you can do is look through the births and deaths on FreeBMD looking for matches to the suname in the area the family lived. having an unusual surname helps.

Also compare to the 1901 census to see if any children are missing.
