Would some kind person take a look to see if they can help me, I have searched for hours but can't seem to find the link I need.
I have the following: Nora Lunn(She may be Ellenora or this may be a middle name) she would have been born 1890 ish. I don't know if she was born in England or Ireland but did live in Rotherhithe/Bermondsey/Downtown SE London. She had a brother Charlie and probably other siblings. She married William Lewis I believe around 1910.

Any help gratefully appreciated.
Thank you.

There's this one on the 1911 census:

Person: LEWIS, Nora
Address: 24 Suffolk St Rotherhithe

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

LEWIS, William Head Married M 23 1888 Dealporter Rotherhithe London VIEW
LEWIS, Nora Wife Married F 21 1890 Rotherhithe London VIEW
LEWIS, Jane Daughter F 0 (2 MONTHS) 1911 Rotherhithe London Surrey VIEW

The coupe state they have been married 9 months which should make it easy to locate a marriage for them on Free BMD.
