Hi,

Mary Ann Nunn, states she was born Old Ford abt 1880 so you need to follow her backwards in the census.  In 1881 Census she is with Parents William and Mary Nunn at 64 Armagh Rd  Parish of Bow RG11/489
Piece:   489
Folio:   142

William Nunn born abt 1844 Leytonstone, Essex
 Mary born abt 1849 Clerkenwell


1891 they are at 38 Bradwell Street, MIle Ford Old Town
RG12/307
Piece:   307
Folio:   27
In this Census  Mary Ann’s age has been transcribed as 4, when it is infact 11.

Place of birth keep changing, may be better to trace their children, starting with their births

I don't think this is the correct family as they still have Mary (aged 21) with them in 1901. Also, William is a printers joiner (as on Selina and Elizabeth's marriages too), but on Mary Ann 's marriage to William EMMINS, she says her father is a labourer.   

In case you don't have it Jan Bee - 19 Nov 1899, William Richard EMMINS (21, labourer) married Mary Ann NUNN (20) at St Mark's, Bow, both residing at 69 Monier Rd. His father William Richard EMMINS, labourer. Her father William NUNN, labourer. Witnesses: Amelia LONG and Charles EMMINS.

Tricky ...

Another possibility:
In Hackney 1891:
William NUNN     45      Old Ford  (watchman)
Mary A                 38      Seven Dials
John W                16      Bethnal Green  (glass blower)
Jane                     12     Bethnal Green
Mary A                  9      Old Ford
Rose S                 6      Hackney
Thomas W            1      Hackney
RG12/207 pg70

and in 1881 at Tower Hamlets:
William NUNN    34     Bow  (night watchman)
Mary                   33     Bow
George                 9     Bow
Amelia                 6      Bethnal Green
John                    3      Bethnal Green
Jane                    1      Bethnal Green
RG11/492 pg7

Though I realise William is not a "labourer" here either. 
Hard to work out the mother's maiden name from these children, possibly MILLS? William Alfred NUNN married Mary Ann MILLS 17 July 1871 at St James the great, Bethnal Green, however this William was a plasterer.

Like you said - too many Williams and Marys!

Try as I might, I have had no luck finding corresponding births with the same mmn. 

I think this is Jane’s birth:

If this is William's birth record

EMMINS, WILLIAM  RICHARD     CHAPMAN 
GRO Reference: 1878  D Quarter in POPLAR  Volume 01C  Page 655

There is this on the CWGC website
PRIVATE

Regiment & Unit/Ship
Essex Regiment
9th Bn.
Date of Death
Died 11 August 1916
Buried or commemorated at

If this is correct then William did indeed die in 1916.

According to Mary Ann's WWI Pension Record Card, her date of birth is 20 Sep 1881. There are a few possibilities for a birth registration, the most likely is:

Mary Ann NUNN   Dec qtr 1881   Poplar (1c/608)  mmn TYSON

Other children with this mmn:
Jane Elizabeth  sep qtr 1878  Bethnal Green
Harriet  Sep qtr 1887  Hackney
Thomas William   Mar qtr 1890  Hackney

I think these sort of fit with the census details I posted in #10

William NUNN and Mary Hannah TYSON on same marriage registration page Jun qtr 1877  Bethnal Green 

Jan-Bee, if you want to be sure I'd be inclined to purchase the birth certificate for Mary Ann to see if the date of birth matches that on the Pension Card.

[maddys52]

William NUNN (full age, widower, labourer) married Mary Hannah TYSON 2 April 1877 (full age, spinster) at St James the great, Bethnal Green.  His father, George NUNN (spinner), her's William TYSON (deceased). Witnesses: John DAVIS and Ann WILLIAMS.

[maddys52]

The births I can see for NUNN and mmn MILLS around the right time in the right area:

William Alfred  Jun qtr 1872  Bethnal Green  (possibly died Jun qtr 1872, Bethnal Green)
Elizabeth Ann   Sep qtr 1873   Bethnal Green  (possibly died Dec qtr 1873 Hackney)
Rebecca Amelia  Sep qtr 1874  Bethnal Green
James William Henry  Jun qtr 1877  Bethnal Green

These are not necessarily all part of the same family.

There is this possibility for death of William's first wife Mary:
Mary Ann NUNN Mar qtr 1875  Poplar aged 44 

[maddys52]

There is a Victoria Park Cemetery, Hackney burial for William Alfred NUNN aged 3 weeks 17 Jun 1872. the address looks similar to the baptism of Elizabeth below -

Elizabeth Annie bap 6 July 1873 (b 6 Jun 1873) parents William Alfred (plasterer) and Mary Ann at St Jude, Bethnal Green

Rebecca Amelia bap 13 Sep 1874 (b 16 aug 1874) parents William (plasterer) and Mary Ann at St Jude, Bethnal Green

Can't see a baptism for James William Henry NUNN, however there is a marriage 28 April 1910 (to Elizabeth Beatrice EVANS) which has his father: William NUNN, plasterer.
