Have you looked for her on later census to check what she has declared as place of birth, I think that would be the obvious starting point?

Mike, on the image they are both minors. Her father was a carter

Not seeing an obvious baptism.

EDIT: Have deleted the wrong baptism I originally posted and thought had got it away before anyone had noticed.
