In 1911 they are living with Emma' s family at 106 Hackett St, Blackheath

There's this census for 1871 but that would mean the marriage of Joseph to Sarah Edge is wrong?

1871 census

Now I'm lost .... I can't see how these Parkes connect with the ones on BCC
So many Parkes!!!

1901. Nimming? Cakemore
Joseph Parkes, hed,54, Pudler,
Sarah, wife, 48, Dudley
John Tromans, son in law, 23, Bricklayers labourer, Rowley Regis

Emma, daur, 17, machinist labourer
Hannah, daur, 15,

What I dont understand is that Joseph is recorded as Bricklayer on his marriage to Sarah?

Nop the ages are out too for that marriage. So its wrong marriage.
