Thanks Andy

Still a mystery as if it wasn't for my Grt Uncle a John Gurney appearing on the 1911C with spouse Kathleen & the Chevons Family & knowing from their M.C. Kathleen's maiden name as 'Stone' & her father is listed as John Stone [deceased] in 1908 i'd say was different Family.

Any ideas on this one please.
Is their a 'Kathleen Stone' listed on the 1901C with father John Stone ?
Perhaps i'm missing something here.

All I can see in 1891 is William Chevons, who is a stoker in the Navy and married. Can't see a marriage or a wife. No trace of Katleen or Sarah in 1891 or 1901

I wonder if this is anything to do with them.

There is a John Stone marring a Sarah Ann Richmond in 1881 and he is a Widower and she a spinster. John is a Bootmaker and they both have the same address. John is 32 and Sarah Ann 28 which would make her the right age for Sarah Ann Chevons her year being born 1853.

Working on the dates and places of the census.
Kathleen Stone was born in West Peckham around 1889.
West Peckham is in the Malling registration district or it was in 1889.
This gives

County: Kent
Year of Registration: 1888
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
Mother's Maiden Name: Not available before 1911 Q3
Volume No: Help 2A

Sarah Ann was 17(39-22) when she had Kathleen.
What was the marriage age in the 1880's?

The records are correct, cannot guarantee that they are your family though. My favorite is the Greenwich marriage.
