Stephen Gibbins b 1877 Barrow upor Soar disappears

[allang]

Stephen Gibbins – born 1877 (Barrow upon Soar Dec 7a 157) to Stephen Gibbins and Emma Gibbins (nee Hartopp). I can find him in the 1881 and 1891 censuses living with his parents but no trace of him after that. There was a marriage between a Stephen Gibbins and Annie Maria Clarke in 1899 (Sep Leicester 7a 503) but without the marriage certificate I can’t prove it is the same Stephen Gibbins. Even if it is, what happened to him after that?

A tree on ancestry has Stephen marrying   Annie Maria Clarke, age 27, on 1st July 1899.at St Peters in Leicester. Their daughter Mabel was baptised on the 26th of November the same year.  They do not have the marriage certificate as their source.
They have Stephen going to South Africa possibly to work in the gold mines (my great grandfather did this) and dying there in Benoni 1918 as the result of a motor accident. They give the cause of death as broken ribs, laceration of lungs and exhaustion so it sounds as if they have the death certificate.
The tree owner is OneillDonna107
Annie and Mabel returned to Leicester in 1920.
All of this information needs verifying.
