Sorry not understanding the ref to 2002 2013? (edit ah I see you are referring to electoral roll there)

What is Agnes' maiden name? and a location would be useful

Births from 1911 give the mother's maiden name so you can check for births on freebmd.org.uk

There's a Glady R mmn Day, and a Dora mmn Day, both born Biggleswade? 1920/1914

Possibly connected to this marriage?

Marriages Dec 1910 (>99%)
Day Agnes M Guildford 2a 131
Field Harry Guildford 2a 131

But there are other Field/Day marriages so you would need birth certs to confirm parents.
