Have you found the couple in the next census? What's her age and birthplace?

Kate Shellito died Dec qtr 1958 Romford aged 77, so born c1881.

She seems to be with her widowed mum Sarah in East Ham in the 1901 census - Kate is 19 born Aldershot.
1901: RG13/1603/41/16.

1891 census (Deptford) shows parents as Charles & Sarah. RG12/494/57/44.

Just for info if you do not already have it Kate's, Birth date is listed as 12th May 1881 in the records I found with her husband Richard's being 14th May 1879

Wow thanks so much
How did you get dob?
-
Can I plead the 5th on that as I am not sure I am allowed to say something like the number 1,939 linked with another word like Register!
-
I also notice that Kate and Richard had children over a long period of time - must have been strange for their first child William (born in 1902) to suddenly have a baby Sister when he was 22. I haven't checked but it would have been possible for him to have had children who then had an Aunt younger than them!!

It is easy enough to deduce a date of birth using the free index by narrowing down the year, then month and day until you get a postive result.

Good point - of course, that is what I did (thanks for the 'get out of jail free' card!!).
-

Strange that you did it for Richard since he died in 1970 and his d-o-b is given in the GRO death index.

I just happened to have been using the FindMyPast 1939 Register at the time, so I was there on the screen to input name etc.
