Looked at the 1911 image: appears to be the same
person...perhaps Edward didn't like the name Polly
and used a 'pet' name.????

Can't find a Polly Cutler on BMD Births. but
two or three Mary/Marias b. 1881.

Polly was used as nickname for Mary Ann Best RF

1901 Census: 24 High St. Oldbury.
Willm. CUTLER hd. 46 Engine Dvr: b.Harborne.
Amphlis CUTLER wife 45 b.Oldbury.
Sarah Jane CUTLER dau.24 Dom. Serv. b.Langley.

RF is that correct Pollys father is a William Cox? should it say Cutler?
