William Augustus Hoskins 1844-1920 and Margaret Ann Hoskins 1856-1927 have a daughter on Geni that I don't think is theirs.

William and Margaret were born and died in Australia and currently there is no evidence that they travelled overseas during their lifetime.

This daughter Private was born, lived and married in Wales, UK

On the 1911 census https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XW6T-HNM?from=lynx1UIV8... she is listed as being 36 so would be born c1875. William and Margaret were married in Australia in 1874 and had a son in Australia in 1875 so it would be extremely unlikely that they married, went to Wales and had a child who they left there and then returned to Australia to have a child in the same year.

On the 1901 census https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XSMK-7DG she is listed as being 25 so would be born c1876

https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/KZW2-28R says she is the daughter of William Augustus HOSKINS and Peggy Anne SIMMONDS

https://www.jlb2011.co.uk/wales/wal-data.htm has a William HOSKEN marrying a Peggy Ann THOMAS in Wales and having children Cecilia Evelyn in 1877 and William Thomas in 1866

I think that the 2 William HOSKEN's have become confused

I think she belongs to this family instead William Hosken, {English} and Peggy Ann Hosken
