what other info do you know about your Florence ?

Yes this is the lineage of the tree. Does this information also fit into your tree? I also found Henry on the 1851 census as well and I have a couple of links to follow up for the marriage of Jessie and Rose A. I haven't been able to find any records of a marriage to Emma, Henry states he is widowed on the 1901 and 1911 but has young children so I'm wandering if the children are illigitamate.

This looks like Father Henry in 1891 - also a widower, so the "marriage" to Florence's mother should be after the 1891 census

I'm trying to trace the mother of Florence Emma Lee 1894-1973, name on birth certificate is Emma (formally) Hinton. Cannot find a marriage cert to Henry Lee. It has been said in the family she was Irish and an opera singer. any help and guidance would be appreciated.
