Notes for Rose May poss. Hobbs
In the 1911 census she was named Rose May and had the birth year of 1889; born in Banbury.
In the 1939 Register she was Rose May born on 23 May 1889

But no marriage index can be found so her surname is not known.  There are 14 people with the forename of Rose in the 1901 census and born in Banbury in 1889.  None are Rose May in this census.
In the birth indices for 1989, one is named Rose May:
