The 1911 census shows that James Thomas Stocking and his wife Alice Mary, formerly Wales, had had 19 children, 16 of whom were still alive by the time of the census. Fortunately, even though James was by then widowed, he still completed the so-called 'fertility' information on the census form.

So far I have only traced information about 18 of those children:

  1. Alice Mary b. 10 December 1874 m. William Scofield 1900 - two children by 1911
  2. James Aaron (my great-grandfather) b. 22 May 1876 m. Susan Hill 1900 - three children in all
  3. Emma Mary Ann b. 9 December 1877 m. James Mayers 1901 - no children
  4. Harriett Elizabeth b. 14 April 1879 m. Alfred Bishop 1899 - ten children in all
  5. William Henry b. 21 October 1880 m. Rosina White 1905 - at least five children
  6. John Arthur b. 30 May 1882 m. Hannah Lewis 1905 - no children by 1911
  7. Aaron Archibald b. 1883 m. Emma Flack 1915 - one child - d. 1 December 1917, France
  8. Catherine Alice b. 1885 m. Charles Hall 1908 - at least three children
  9. Elizabeth Bridgetina b. 1886 m. Arthur Evans 1910 - at least one child
  10. Lavinia b. 1889 m. Frederick Monk 1909 - at least five children
  11. Richard Henry b. 1890 d. 8 August 1913
  12. Annie Louise b. 1893 m. Francis Turner (tbc) 1918 - at least two children
  13. Archibald David b. 1894 m. Jane Crofts 1917 - at least one son
  14. Mary Anne S b. 1895 d. March 1896
  15. Susan Caroline b. 1897 m. Frederick Smith (tbc) 1919 - at least one child, possibly four
  16. Alfred Edmund Ilott b.1899 (still alive in 1911)
  17. Violet Rose M I b. 1900 m. Albert Golder (tbc) 1928 - at least one child
  18. Alexander Edward b. 1902 m. Florence Carlow 1924 - at least one child
Two of the above had died by 1911: Richard Henry, aged 13, and Mary Ann S, aged 1. There is one more birth and death to be found.
