Were any of their births registered? With unusual names it shouldn't be too difficult to pin them down, but only if the births were registered

well the only 2 i have birth certs on are my 2x gg Eliza Parker bn 1872 in cranfield, and her brother Solomon in 1867 in millbrook.
I thought i had Leonard in 1878 but it turns out not to be him. So looking at his death reg he is registered as Lemi Loveridge Parker died 1962 in bucks aged 91. so born around 1870. I would take the age with a pinch of salt though. I did find a Lemuel Parker bn in 1875 in herts but as yet nothing to tell me that is Lemi.
Fanny i found a death for her in Essex in 1931 which has her birth as 1865 but i haven't found her birth yet. Lena well im not sure is she Selina or some other name which has been shortened too Lena. Im sure there must be other children as Peg leg died in 1907 her age was 80 putting her bn in 1827 again adding on a few years to maker her more likely born about 1835 to 1840. Which would mean she had her first child at 25-30.  I would be surprised if that was the case. Peg leg had one leg as well so i think she would have probably not traveled to far.
