I have the marriage certificate that shows my GG Grandmother to be Agnes Fitzgerald and she married Walter James Deering in 1898. Her father is listed as Thomas Fitzgerald (deceased) Walter is 22 and Agnes is 21. (b 1877 ?)

I would like to trace Agnes' parents abut have the following problems:

1891 census - Agnes is a domestic servant to Frederick Malyon. It shows her as 16 (b 1875 ?) I know this is her, as Frederick is one of the witnesses on the marriage certificate. Shows her born in Mile End Old Town

1881 census - Agnes is living with George Murphy and he is listed as her grandfather. Shows her born in St Georges in the East

1901 census - She is married so would not be living with parents, but I can't find Walter and Agnes Deering listed at all

I also can't find a record of her birth so can't order a birth certificate.

How can I find out who her parents were? Any help appreciated.
