Is there an address on the marriage cert? If there is you could pay out for a copy of the 1911 census, it depends on how desperate you are

Could have lied about her age or her name. My grandfather had all official documents in the name of James Arthur. He was James Auguste. His father was called Elphege but went by the name of Alfred.
