thank you all so much for your help, I now believe that her grand-parents lived at that address. which would tie into the Smith name.

I am still no nearer to finding her berth cert but thanks to you all I have filled in another bit of missing puzzle.

once again thank you all very much.

So if the first mariage was in 1918, it is possible that Garvary Road didn't exist until after 1901? Or may have gone by another name.
