I'm not sure about the accuracy of that Ancestry tree (what a surprise  ;D ) as they have a link to an Alice Amelia Edwards in the Gloucester Electoral registers for 1920. As she'd only be 15 then it can't possibly be the right one!

Welcome to rootschat  :)

Certificates you will not 'find' online as they are civil records which you need to purchase, you will find indexes and using those details you can buy one.

I can see several Alice's, several Amelia's but no Alice Amelia's registered 1905/1906 however I suggest you check yourself http://www.freebmd.org.uk  if you know when her birthday was then registrations took place 4 times a yr, so if she was born in the 1st 3 months of the yr it could be in that quarter or the 2nd quarter.

1939 census? I assume you mean the 1939 Register as the last census you can see is 1911, which you should find her on hopefully along with her parents/siblings

How about this - perhaps she changed her name around and used a middle name as her first name, not unusual, my grandmother did that.

Possible death -

Date of Registration - Dec 1970
Registration district - Cardiff
Inferred County - Glamorganshire

As Groom has already said perhaps Alice added the name Amelia and then the name Sali  ???

Where has the Amelia come from, is that the marriage certificates? We really need her father's name from the marriage certificates as that will help us to find her parents' marriage and her birth from the GRO records.
