Edith Ethel 16th January 1884 William Frederick 16th December 1885 Helen Augusta 19th January 1888 In all cases parents are William Frederick and Annie. So, maybe her full name was Alice Anne but she went by the name Annie? She is on the 1911 census as Alice Ann Dry, widowed, living in Cheshire, with 3 of her children William Frederick, Helen Augusta and Dorothy May.
