Sorry that this is a bit off-topic, please reply directly if you can. How long after the BMD event is it possible for the registration to happen?
I have a couple on the 1881 census, married with two children. I know it is the right woman as her sister is also in the household under her maiden name. So, it isn't a previous wife with the same first name. Their marriage on FreeBMD doesn't happen until 1883. I know it is possible that they didn't actually get married until 1883 and that they were "pretending" on the census. However, is it possible for a marriage to happen in 1876 (a year before the age of the elder child) and not be in the indices for 7 years?
