I have a family in 1901:-
RG13; Piece: 3242; Folio: 131; Page: 16
Hepthorne Road, North Wingfield, Derbyshire
John TEW, Head, M, 39, Railway Guard, Brownhills, Staffs
Sarah TEW, Wife, M, 37, Brownhills, Staffs
George W TEW, Son, S, 17, Wood Turner, Brownhills, Staffs
Amelia TEW, Daughter, S, 13, Wingfield, Derbs
Nellie TEW, Daughter, S, 9, Wingfield, Derbs
plus a couple of lodgers
John and Sarah (nee Thacker) married Q2 1886 in Sheffield (3 years after the birth of George!). The new GRO search brings up all three children with mmn of Thacker, so that's all OK.
In 1911 John and Sarah are with who I assume is her brother from his name and age (I haven't traced Sarah back as it is the Tews I am related to), and only Nellie is still with them (RG14; Piece: 16973; Schedule Number: 52). The address is Hednesford Rd, Brownhills, Nr Walsall, Staffordshire.
I haven't found George (but I think he may have gone to India as there is a possible marriage), but the mystery is with Amelia.
Searching on Ancestry I came up with her as a daughter of John and Sarah Davies, and some helpful(????) person has submitted an alteration of her name to Davies! However when I look at the image, it is just Amelia Tew on line 4, with the 3 lines above blank. The signature panel at the bottom is for John Tew, address Hepthorne Lane, W Chesterfield

If you go to the previous image, it is the title page for John Davies' return, and the next image is the title page for John Tew's return.
What on earth is going on!
