Would this appear to be her birth?

Births Mar 1882 (>99%)
Guy Elizabeth Ann Sunderland 10a 506

(By the way i also have Guy's in my tree and wonder if there is a connection?!)

hi ian,that looks like her,but if we go by the 1901 census it means he was born around 1882 if that's any help cheers

I searched freeBMD from 1880 for Charles E Patterson and the earliest one is one born in 1890, which means he would have only been 14 when he married!!

There are none for the 1880's at all. It jumps from the two i already provided to the one in 1890 then 1897!

Maybe they were from different marriages ie either different mother or father?
