Who were the witnesses, particularly on 1889.
Baythorne St in 1891 census was at piece 313 ed 42.
I Can't find baythorne st in 1881.

Ok, so what of the children?
Since you claim her as a direct ancestor, there must have been issue from at least one of those marriages or before. (Just trying every avenue)

in 1901, I suspect that family are at bromley-by-bow.

Emma may be 31y and Hubby 25y.

Next step would be for you to cross-check the rickford/rickord kids info against  the bmd indexes (for year of birth and location), and try to find them in 1891.
