Some confusion over whom he married. It could have been Isabella Methven. Hard to find a birth in Christchurch. The only suitable birth isn't there, but in Edmonton.

Isabel Dickens appears as 'Isabella', living with her sister Caroline and other siblings in Fulham. She was a butcher's cashier, age 17, born in Bermondsey. She and her sister appeared in the 1891 census at home in Fulham with their family, father a fireman.

In the 1911 census the family had moved to Christchurch (then Hampshire).
