Welcome to RootsChat. 

According to the 1901 census she was 5, so possibly born in 1896.  Did she lie about her age when she got married and never admitted it?

There is a registration of a Hilda Baldwin in Grantham RD Mar 1897 7a 508.  It's the only one close to the sound of Baldry.

Have you found the family on 1911 Census. In the index there is a Hilda May BALDRY aged 15 in Grantham, I don't think she is with the family though who are also in Grantham.

If it is her the middle name might be helpful but cannot find her on birth index.

If this is your Hilda she was a domestic servant living with a family Adcock. She was born Grantham and her relationship to this family was servant.

Like Robert I cannot see her either on the birth index.

Hi

Have you been able to find any birth registrations for her siblings? The only one I could seem to find was for Frederick

Lincolnshire archives wouldn't hold anything relating to the birth certificate.

You really need the Lincolnshire Registration Service as they hold all the original registers for the county and provide a scanned copy of the original document in the form of a certificate for the usual £7 fee. They can accept a search request either by post, telephone or online via the Lincs council website ("do it online" section).

Bear in mind that if the census gives Grantham as pob it may be that the birth was in a village nearby and Grantham was the nearest town. Three counties (Lincs, Leics and Notts) share a boundary close to Grantham so you might have to look at the adjoining counties in addition to Lincolnshire.

Hi haleyc and welcome to Rootschat  

Like Evie I couldn't see registrations for Hilda, Rose or Edith BALDRY in Grantham, but there is this possible one for Rose:

Mar Qtr 1892 Grantham Vol 7a Page 458 Rose Baldwin TILSON.

There is also the marriage of Millicent Ann TILLSON to Frederick BALDRY:

Dec Qtr 1892 Grantham Vol 7a Page 963; ie after the birth of Rose but before the births of Hilda, Edith and Frederick.

I'm wondering whether Baldwin & Baldry were muddled up or misheard at times....

Kind regards
Gaie
