Although Kate is listed as 22 when she married on the 1939 Register her birth date is listed as 20 May 1897?  So could this be her birth?

 HOBBS, KATE     Mothers Maiden Name   MAYO     
GRO Ref: 1897  Sept Quarter  WANDSWORTH  Volume 01D  Page 627

Which might tie in with this possible marriage ??

Marriages Mar 1891 
Hobbs    Alfred        Wandsworth    1d   758   
Mayo    Mary         Wandsworth    1d   758

Alice   Hobbs   Wife 33   Wandsworth London
Alfred George   Hobbs   Son 19   Painter house   Battersea London
Katie   Hobbs  Daughter  13 Battersea London
