I can’t see a birth for Florence.
Does the baptism definitely show 1892?

There is a birth 1893 with mmn Andrews but she seems to be the daughter of John and Mary Whiteley who is George’s brother  :-\

1891 3240/38

Maybe the George  b Lincolnshire in 1891 with brother John, is not the same George.
