You will probably have to buy a copy of the marriage cert. to see how old Beatrice was at the time of marriage, this way you can work out when she was born. It will also give you her father's name and occupation, which will help find them in the census records. Without this info, any info found will only be guess work.

Is this Beatrices' death?
