i am looking for ny info on herbert  and ada mathison who lived in chain walk and franchise street just after ww1

i believe my granparents were living in chain walk....... their names were ada and herbert mathison if anyone could confirm this i would be most grateful
 
1901 has Herbert Mathison age 13 born Nottingham living Aston manor.

Fred age 37 b. Hull, Electrical Engineer
Alice age 37 b. Aston manor
Arthur age 15 b. Derby
Florrie age 11 Derby
Albert 2 Birmingham

Given the age gap between last 2 and birthplace it may be that Alice is the 2nd wife of Fred.
 
Re: mathison update

Fred was probably a nickname as A Jesse Mathison married an Alice Weston in Derby 1885 and all ages fit.
