Several Edith Malin marriages up to 1961, but only 1 with initial C - so a possibility. You would need the marriage certificate to confirm second name and Father's name and/or birth certificate which would confirm DOB.

A Q4 birth reg. would "fit" a September birth as 6 weeks was allowed in which to register a birth

Hi, I have an Arthur Malin born around 1885 who married my great Aunt Lavinia Ames on May 30, 1907. They had a daughter Lilian, who was born in 1908. The Malin family started the first Fish and Chip shops in the UK, and am looking for any other children and descendants they may have had as I don't have access to the 1921 census, only the 1911 and that only shows Lilian. I hope someone can assist me, please
