But if the Kent birth cert is incorrect, how do we know her mmn is Manning?

I assumed that Caroline's marriage cert named her father as Robert and that led to the census and then to the baptism and marriage of Robert STEVENS and Mary Anne MANNING in 1832.  I can see at least one person with an Ancestry tree who claims to have all certificates but has not uploaded them.

Robert is a collier, abode Harry Hill.  Perhaps this is it, although this says it opened in 1880.

Worked this out with the help of Wiki, Harry Hill = Harrow Hill.

Robert and Mary may have lost a child in 1834 named Maria.  She was buried on 28 Nov aged 10 weeks, abode Harrow Hill.
