Thank you Sharon, updated. Her marriage certificate doesn't indicate any middle names. I think maybe I'll have to spen lots of money on finding the right one. Very frustrating when I have loads of photos of her.

If you have her on census returns and no middle name is ever mentioned, and the marriage certificate is the same,i would just go for the Kensington ones first, starting with the one Gail found as the date seems more likely x
