I'm resurrecting this thread after getting a pm from Jean to say that Florence is on the 1901 census as Florence Mustoe. They were living as man and wife though not legally until they married in 1902. Here they are on the 1901 census, might help us to trace Florence back.
130 Queens Place, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire
Harry Mustoe, head, 24, navvy
Florence, wife, 26
Elsie, dau, 3
Florence, dau, 1
All born Cheltenham.

I've had a PM from Jean as well, adding that Florence was born Cheltenham 1876, so this could be her 1891
