      Looking at hid address, this matches that for the 1911 census.

      These notes from Richard Martin's FamilySearch website
      "This was in my Dad (Frank Martin) few papers when he died. Also the family history is that the name Martin only started when he married Gertrude, a non-Jew. The marriage address in 1915 matches the family living there in 1911 who can be traced to the Birth address in the 1891 census to match the birth certificate details of parents. "

      This is also confirmed on his death certificate.
