You could apply for their death certificates to see who the informants were, it might not help, but you never know.
Is there any chance that Beatrice had been married before?

Not seeing any results on FreeBMD, either - perhaps they had no issue.

I'm guessing this is her birth?

England & Wales, FreeBMD Birth Index, 1837-1915
Name: Beatrice Amelia Bray
Date of Registration: Apr-May-Jun 1899
Registration district: Wolverhampton
Inferred County: Shropshire, Staffordshire, West Midlands
Volume: 6b
Page: 703

because it fits with:

England & Wales, Death Index: 1916-2006
Name: Beatrice Amelia Hyde
Birth Date: 11 Mar 1899
Date of Registration: Apr-May-Jun 1971
Age at Death: 72
Registration district: Dudley
Inferred County: Staffordshire
Volume: 9b
Page: 483
