Are these yours,there is a tree on Ancestry.co with Florence C Carter born 24/10/1898 died 1993 married 1923 to George Crane.
Parents Ellen born rotherithe 1858 died 1923 and charles carter.
I then found this marriege 1892 A/M/J in Hackney between Ellen dell and Charles Richard Carter as yet i can't find any census records with them on.

Do you have Florence's marriage cert?

I wondered whether MargaretManson's 1901 household might have been a blended one, if Ellen's husband had died, but this is the household in 1891 in St George in The East, so that rules it out:

Charles Everitt 27
Ellen Everitt 28
Charles J Everitt 1

Is this the birth reg'n you think may be Florence's 'sister'?

Here ya go, rootgatherer --

-- on the Surname Info board. (When searching for duplicate posts it's wise to do it from "Boards summary".)

Perhaps Anne will choose a thread so as not to violate the one post per topic rule and waste people's time. If she bothers to read replies in either one.

There are two trees on Ancestry and both have Florence(Catherine) and Florence C born 24/10/1898 died 1993.
Anne has one of them,Florence C married George Crane and also had a Florence C 1925,it's strange there isn't a birth record for the first Florence.
On her marriage records she is down as just Florence,I thought you had to give your birth name when getting married.
