At 15 Canal St Birmingham in 1901 there is the household of Joseph Ray, hawker.
It includes his daughter Rose, aged 20, press worker and grandchildren Harry aged 3 and Rose aged 0.

No guarantee that Rose is the mother of the children, of course.

It may be a coincidence, but a Rose Elizabeth Ray marries a William T Lowe in 1918.

Henry Ray born 1897 Birmingham and Rose Elizabeth Ray born 1900 Birmingham both have - for MMN on the GRO site, so it looks quite likely that Rose could be their mother.

Though there is a baptism for Rose Elizabeth Ray 14 May 1900 St Nicolas, Birmingham, parents John Henry Ray and Rose Ray (according to FamilySearch). I don't see one for Harry, but FamilySearch is suggesting that he is with a Reynolds family in 1911. Off to check it out...

Yes, this is Harry Ray in 1911:

Nephew of Agnes who was in that 1901 family.

But surely that can't be a coincidence! Maybe Harry is one of those who appears twice on the same census.
