Hi again Veneita, On Ancestry there is a tree for a George STEVENS who married Hannah CARRUTHERS. However, he was born in 1898 in Newport, Monmouthshire. In the link to the 1901 census he is shown as James G(eorge) STEVENS with parents Albert and Annie born and living in Risca. He could have increased his age on marriage to be old enough but it is rather a lot. The father and a brother are coal miners. Also there is no Dorothy shown but it is possible she wasn't at home on census night. But a lot of "ifs" there.
