Hi and welcome to RootsChat.

Lots of questions ....

Was she born Florence Burton and where, or was Burton her married surname?
 
What was her husband's name and when/where did they marry?

Is she the Florence Burton at 13 Rushton Street on London Electoral Roll in 1933? Other occupants: Frederick Charles Burton, John Thomas Burton, Rosina Annie Burton, John Edward Burton and Thomas John Burton. Just John Thomas Burton and Rosina Annie Burton there in 1939. Or is she the Florence Burton at 57 Rutland Road with William George Burton in 1933? 

Was her maiden name Nicholson, Chapman or Berryman? Was her husband called Henry F or George R or William G?

A Florence Webb married a Frederick Charles Burton in Shoreditch on 26 December 1921.  Is this your couple?  If so trees on Ancestry give her death as 1978.

Think the tree is wrong - the death is shown to be at Havering for a Florence Webb not Burton!!

Are you saying that Mr Burton registered the death? Or was just stated as being her husband? (Which if he hadnt died and they werent divorced, would be the case, even if tbey had separated for many years)
