Hubert did have a daughter Minnie E., but if the Census refer to her, where was Stanley's wife? (see marriage # 114 Margaret "Maggie" Emma Mills) [as Stanley’s wife Minnie C, b. 1868, died in 1904, she may have been an invalid as early as 1901 and in a hospital - believe the Minnie E. listed in 1901 census is Hubert’s daughter.]
