Original family chart had Mary Ramsden m. ? Dixon
their son John Dixon m. unknown
and his son Lewis William Dixon married Mary Roberts

There is not enough years for so many generations So did Many ramsden m. John Dixon?

The free bmd entry for a marriage in 1908 Scarbrough of Mary Roberts and Lewis Dixon which fits, as soon after George henry Roberts died his widow and dau mary moved to Scarbrough.

The 1881 census entry below seems to fit Lewis william with father John Dixon and the GRO entry for a Lewis william birth in sepQt1878 and makes Lewis and Mary Roberts similar ages.
However his mother is not Mary Ramsden of Wakefield so has Mary died and his father John Remarried?
