Just for the record............

In 1911, Charles, 40, Margaret, 3, and Robert,1, Keating were lodgers in the home of Walter Alexander, 67, his wife, Margaret, 55, sons Walter, 23, & Robert, 22, and daughter Sarah, 16

The ages of the Alexander 'parents' match quite closely those of 1901 census on FMP, but the forenames clearly DON'T. They say they have been married for 37 years, have had 9 children, of whom 6 are living

I think 1901 was probably very badly-written - in fact, FMP couldn't decipher the surname at all.......................
