What happened to the Lockleys of Manchester?

I am having terrible trouble trying to find the Lockley family in 1911.

I have them every year up until then but they seem to have disappeared into thin air. I have been wondering did they emigrate?

Last sighted in 1901.

Edward Lockley born 1850 Manchester
Mary Jane Lockley born 1848 Clare, Suffolk
Percy Lockley born 1884 Manchester
Thomas Lockley born 1885 Manchester
Florence Elizabeth Lockley born 1888 Manchester

Piece 3704/F135/page23

There is another daughter Emily born 1877 in Manchester who I've found working as a maid in Moss Side in the 1901 census.
