No, Agnes' parents appear to be Frederick Moore (as per marriage certificate) and Agnes Connor/O'Connor. She is listed as Connor and O'Connor at different times. Frederick possibly born 1849 Bradford, parents from Norfolk. Agnes possibly born 1848ish Bham, parents from Ireland. Their marriage...

Not sure when the census scan is from but I don't think it's correct. William appears to be at 59 Great Brook St in 1881 and 9h 2ct Clifton Road in 1891, son of Thomas and Matilda.

There is another article on the 17 February 1900 which is a prelude to this one when they were also visited (coincidently by a constable Bailey) and accused of neglect. It says they were nearly sent to gaol then but were given 6 weeks to reform, which they obviously didn't. Strangely there is...

So many tantalising snippets with no one to explain them. Florence appears to have died in 1966, so not that long after the Christening.
