Her birth certificate will have time of birth if she was a twin.

Sorry your dates dont make sense, if Leonard was born in 1886, and was 67 when he married, that would be 1953, but your nan was born in 1912 and was aged 54 so that makes that 1966.

The same family as in 1891 on 1901 above and there is a Leonard but he is only 1 year old.
