1891 census states her age as 26, which means she was born in 1865. However, birth certificate (if correct one) shows she was born in 1861 - 4 years earlier. Did she lie to her husband and the census so as to appear not 4 years older than him?

Colin Vernon:
I only recall meeting our paternal grandfather once. There was also a cousin named Penny that I went out with a few times, but was told it wasn’t a good idea to get too involved. (Whose daughter was Penny? Not Lucy, so that leaves Nellie.)
