Could this be Maggie Emma....

Marriage Jun 1900
ALLBRIGHTON James Edward  Leicester  7a/489
KEITH Maggie Emma S  Leicester  7a/489

1901 census has Maggie born Paddington, London.

And this looks like his death

Deaths Sep 1910
ALLBRIGHTON James E  35 years  Plymouth  5b/154

Mrs M ALLBRIGHTON, Housekeeper, departed London on 2 Feb 1911 on the OTWAY
destination Sydney, Australia.
