Maureen It's a strong possibility. The image says she was a dressmaker, so she could have worked with George in the drapery. Nothing for occupation for her on marriage cert. nor 1901, but 1901 says she was born in Westminster, admittedlt not too far from Lambeth. Thanks for your help. Off to bed now. Take care Ron

Oh dear! So do I. Marriage cert for 1895 shows Grace's father as deceased. There is a death for a Henry in 1883 aged 67, Bethnal Green, which could be him. I don't know her mother's maiden name.
