Beatrice name change to Watts dated 20.4.44 - probably date of update to record rather than the date she married.

(Married Edward J Watts Q2 1944 Dartford RD 2A 2168)

there are closed records at numbers 3 and 5

Rosina's dob is badly obscured and may read 1924

For an idea of time frame and possible areas to look

Surname First name(s) Spouse District Vol Page
Marriages Mar 1917 (>99%)
Burrows William Pearce Lambeth 1d 520 <<<<<<
Dennis Mabel M Taylor Lambeth 1d 520
Pearce Beatrice A E Burrows Lambeth 1d 520 <<<<<
Taylor Percy W Dennis Lambeth 1d 520

Was Albert the only Burrows child - looks like it from dates on freebmd - there were other Burrows/Pearce marriages around the time.

Not finding a Burrows/Harvey marriage. Do you know when William died or maybe Beatrice wasn't free to remarry, but said so on the Register for propriety's sake

Have you actually found the 6 children's birth registrations to know what was given as the mmn?

Married William Edward Burrows born Tasmania, Australia. (1894-1918), married 1917, Lambeth, Surrey. One child Albert W.F. Burrows (1919-)

No marriage date for marriage to Sidney Harvey (1894-1940)

She married Edward Watts as Beatrice A.E.Harvey making it appear that she was legally married to Sidney Harvey.
