There seem to be quite a few trees online with her and Alfred, but none have a marriage, so it is possible that there wasn't one. Even doing a search with just her first name, nothing shows up.

A possible for Alfred. Shadwell comes under the Stepney registration district

Thank you you did that quickly. lavinia died 1923 in hackney. Lavinia was born abt 1841. Have some census's but really struggling with alfred as there are so many. The birth you found seems to be the right one thank you so much

I was thinking that the Eliza Lavinia Blackaller could be Lavinia's mother ?

If he was sure he was born Shadwell, can we eliminate this Stepney registration? I know it is 2 years out, but possibly he lied about his DOB as he was younger than Lavinia.
