But best of all, actually only ages ONE YEAR between 1881 and 1891! Did she use Oil of Ulay? nell

I've got a similar one I have a baptism for her in 1825 1841 – b 1826 (age 15) 1851 – b 1826 (age 25) 1861 – b. 1831 (age 30) she married in 1864 (''of full age'') her husband was 8 years younger than she was 1871 – b. 1831 (age 40) 1881 – b. 1835 (age 46) 1891 – b. 1841 (age 50) She died in 1899. Looks like she’d been lying about her age for so long that even her husband didn’t know how old she was. he had the last laugh - on her death cert he said she was 82 (ie b. 1817)

Maybe she had 'shares' in the stuff!
