There is not an obvious Watkins/York marriage, so you will need his birth certificate.
Do you know if or when he married?
Thanks

Are you looking for siblings of Charles, 1864, or a connection to Albert 1892?
When were Richard, Sophia and George born?

Charles's wife is shown as Mary J and Mary Jane in 1891 and 1911, not Mary Ann.
I think you need to get some certificates to confirm correct parentage.
