I think the 1871 age is wrong and should probably read 36 rather than 30. Maybe the employer filled it in and guessed her age. She was christened 27 Feb 1835 and was 6 in 1841 and 16 in 1851. I think the marriage to Phillip Tree was one of the Castle Camp Wenhams. I have come across the name before but cannot find it in my notes at present. There were a lot of Wenhams at Castle Camps but haven't connected them to our Wendy family.
Rebecca married Robert Ward in London in 1873 and I haven't been able to find any others that would have come from Wendy as is the given birthplace in 1851 and 1871. I did consider another marriage but found the 1871 with Wenham name. I suppose I should try the Tree or Free name though
I also have the burial of husband at Linton in 1876 and 1881 census

If she is not in Cambs then I will try for another county between there and London or in London
