but it does look like just a coincidence, or possibly cousins????

This could possibly the birth registration for Florence:

Name: Florence Lydia Goodey
Event Type: Birth Registration
Registration Quarter: Jan-Feb-Mar
Registration Year: 1883
Registration District: Oxford
County: Oxfordshire
Event Place: Oxford, Oxfordshire, England
Mother's Maiden Name (not available before 1911 Q3):
Volume: 3A
Page: 816
Line Number: 260

After this time, we begin to go to dates where people can still be living so details cannot be posted here.

If you use FreeBMD, you may be able to find if any of the above married, or a copy of a Birth cert, would confirm parents.

There are a number of births after 1911 (this is when the Mothers maiden name began to show on the index), however there is another marriage in West Ham that could account for these:

Hi Colin

This appears to be the marriage:

Marriages Jun 1905 (>99%)
>>> Goodey Florence Lydia Wandsworth 1d 1122
Gregory William Philip Wandsworth 1d 1122
>>> HARDING Harold Ernest Wandsworth 1d 1122
WATTS Alice Maud Wandsworth 1d 1122

I have found a marriage certificate for the above couple, June 1905, at Wandsworth London, but I can not seem to find if they had any children or grand children.It is believed that they did.
Any help would be very much appreciated thank you.
Regards and Seasons wishes to all.
Colin.
