Hi Dea

As far as ages go I have found that even in consecutive census records ages can vary enormously, but you have got her correct date of birth

His age on the wedding certificate 29 years of age.

Dea Report 6 Jul 2011 17:16

I think it is the correct 1901, though Kate's age is wrong?

This would be her birth:

Births Dec 1877
Winser Kate Elizabeth Dover 2a 923
....................

And James could very well be Frederick:

Births Jun 1900
GREY Frederick James Dover 2a 1031

Hi all

As James does not appear on the census records, I am not able to confirm where he was born so I cannot say for sure if any you have mentioned are him, more sthe pity.
