The only thing I can think of for you to do would be to get Hannah's birth certificate.  There are 4 choices in the area for 1908-1909 on the free BMD.  You could contact each of those register offices and find which had a father named Christopher.  You then would get the mother's name.  Then find the marriage of Christopher to whoever.  That would get you Christopher's father's name.  Then you could look for the correct Christopher in the earlier census.  The marriage cert would give you his age also.
