Eva Cotter whose mother was Ruth Lloyd was my oldest living relative. She died last week aged 97. Samuel Lloyd was her brother. I have a photo of him and Florence. That is all I have.

This Eva?
Births Jun 1915
Cotter Eva M R Lloyd Plymouth 5b 395

Marriages Mar 1909
COTTER John Plymouth 5b 474
LLOYD Ruth Plymouth 5b 474

A few birth and marriage certificates are always useful, and interesting.

Did Eva tell you about her childhood? This is the only Ruth Cotter I can see in 1911 - but no sign of husband:

Ruth Cotter
Age in 1911: 25
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1886
Relation to Head: Wife
Gender: Female
Birth Place: Exeter
Civil parish: Plymouth
County/Island: Devon
Country: England
Street Address: 1 Summerland Street, Plymouth
Marital Status: Married
Occupation: House Wife
Registration district: Plymouth
Registration District Number: 276
Sub-registration district: Plymouth South West
ED, institution, or vessel: 8
Household schedule number: 363
Piece: 12984
Household Members: Name Age
Ruth Cotter 25
Albert Cotter 4
John Cotter 1

John's birth was registered under Cotter, but there is no birth for Albert. However on the census she states married 3 years, and there are 2 Albert LLoyds reg Plymouth around the right time.

Added: in 1901 there were 2 John Cotters on the census - one is on 1911 with wife Ellen, the other is missing. He was onboard a ship in 1901, so this may explain his absence.

Yes That is all correct. Ruth died in 1917 Eva was two. William John Cotter remarried Annie Axworthy . Bernard died very young. Dont know what happened to Albert.
