Jan and Annie added this family and I have researched further and added more connections as Davenport connects to Farmer and Knowles down the line .

Problem is that on 1881 Census Eliza Davenport born 1861 daughter of Edward Davenport born 1833 is shown as married but no trace of her husband .
I believe she married an Enoch Charles Farmer in 1880 St. John the Evangelist Kates Hill but has not taken Farmer name in 1881 ?
Enoch then becomes Charles Farmer in 1891.1901 and 1911 Census .
Cannot find him in 1881 or previous but could possibly be son of Fanny Farmer born 1841 ( no Husband) and no trace of her before 1881

1881 on Ancestry and on image, Eliza is down as Eliza Farmer.

Looks like Enochs son.

You are unbelievable Jimmy,
So that means Fanny Farmer married a Perks and then reverted to her maiden name in 1881 and her children also reverted from Perks to Farmer
That is going to take some putting on Bcc !!!

I can't see a marriage for them, they may have just lived as man and wife.
