I have managed to confirm that this is the correct Annie, as I have a copy of her brother's marriage certificate. Annie was a witness at her brother Harry's wedding in 1891, just as he was to her marriage in 1893. So both their signatures are on both certificates. And whilst I am no graphologist, both are identical to the naked eye.

Interestingly their father John Lane is still an engine driver at Harry's wedding in 1891, but has been demoted to labourer by her wedding in 1893.

That is very useful!

Any idea what happened to her younger sister Elizabeth?

Yes, Eliza Norah married Roger Wood in 1908 in Wandsworth. The witnesses were my Great Great Grandfather John Rowe Eveleigh and another Eveleigh. The Lanes and the Eveleighs were very connected families, living alongside each other and both working for the railway. There were two marriages between the families: John Rowe Eveleigh marrying Mary Lane and Harry Lane marrying Emma Amelia Eveleigh. Plus John Thomas Lane married Louisa Rowe, an Eveleigh cousin.
