	I can't find them at the moment but on the 1911 census Henry Garfield is described as "adopted grandson" on the image and not "adopted son". Kath. x

I am researching Wilkins family and cannot work out what happened to Johnny Wilkins. He was born 1871 in Llangedeirn, Carmarthenshire to John Wilkins & Eliza Rees He married Emily May Walters in 1892 and had 3 kids (Edna May, Vernon Lloyd (my partners great grandfather), & Mildred Norma). Emily died in 1897. Johnny remarried in 1902 to Mary Ann James. I have recently found he had 2 more kids Beatrice Mona (1903) & Henry Garfield (1904) Henry Garfield wilkins is on the 1911 census with another family as 'adopted son'. I can't find Beatrice on 1911 census but is on 1939 register living with Margaret Webb (nee James) her Auntie, she married Walter Filby in 1946. I can't find Johnny or Mary Ann on the 1911 census nor any trace of them after the birth of Henry in 1904. Can anyone help? I wonder why the 2 youngest kids seemingly ended up abandoned!
