The DOB on a death cert is only 'as known' to the informant..........

What else do you know about her?

This one is the correct registration district for Usworth:

Births Dec 1890

Robinson Rachel Chester le S. 10a 512

and the correct time period for registration!

There is a birth on Free BMD of Rachel Robinson Chester le Street 4qtr 1890 10a 512 which is probably her. She should be on the 1891 census with her family giving her parents names from which you can trace a marriage
