Hi Kimberley

1st of all...I am not related,just trying to help.

If I understand you right, i think your looking to follow back on the 'Scott' line? Thomas Scott and Mable Sharp?

This looks like the marriage...

Thomas Scott
Mabel Sharp
1933
quarter 4 (oct nov dec)
Islington
1b-636

Buying a marriage cert is the only SURE way to prove your following the correct line....
It will give you both Fathers names and occupations. Also with a bit of luck...bride and grooms correct ages.

If you want to buy a BMD cert, here
is the link where you can buy it online..(it's safe)

(tip)Never pay more than £7
(another tip) for a marriage,you only need
put one partners name when ordering.

I hope this helps you to move on in your research.

This is a big BIG guess! but not impossible..

Marriages Dec 1896 (>99%)

SAUNDERS Louisa St Giles 1b 1095
SHARP James St Giles 1b 1095

Maybe I'm being silly now but I cant help it! lol

Theres NO short cut without buying certs untill you reach a living person in 1901...
