that ws on FMP and ancestry have transcribed him as AUTHOR HOLYHEAD aged 8 but FMP have him as 9, on the original image he is definately 9.
Alfred the father only married Sarah 10 years earlier, the older son Fred must have had a different mother, there is again some corrections to the years married and children of the marriage, it's been changed from 10 born, 2 living and 8 deceased to 1 born 1 living 0 deceased. this could be your joseph arthur as the dates fit well too.

though maybe not, there is an arthur hollyhead registered in walsall in 1902, mind you i had him on another 1911 i'm sure, yes he was the one recorded in navigation street and transcribed by ancestry as 7 not 9.
Alfred, Arthur's father born 1869 was the brother to the Enoch found earlier.
Cannot find a marriage in 1901 for Alfred and a sarah.

the more I looked at this the more i'm thinking the joseph arthur HOLYHEAD resgistered in 1901 is the AUTHOR HOLYHEAD on ancestry, the fact that the surname has stayed the same throughout must mean it is how the family were spelling it and it's only changed later on to HOLLYHEAD. Certainly Alfred and his father David seem to have used Holyhead on their census returns back to into the previous century
Hi Tony ...this question was for a tree I am working on for someone else - but my relatives too (in part) had roots around there and also Short Acre .... drop me an email sometime at [email protected] and perhaps we can see if there is anything in common
