A tip for you:

When I don't know anything about an area mentioned I Google " genuki 'placename' " and often you get a good description about the place.

To use South Stoneham as an example:

You've also taught me something, since my wife was born in Bitterne and we married in West End ;-)

There are no marriages on freebmd transcipts on Ancestry for a Thomas Robert Day anywhere in England before 1903.

Reg

Have you tried to locate her father in 1881? You can search by occupation on Ancestry...........

If you could find him you'd know his birth year and birthplace, which may help with searches in earlier censuses.
