That and her unusual middle name show that this is the index entry for her birth registration:

Sarah WILLSHAW, b. Mar Q 1877, Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire, England, d. Yes, date unknown (Mother) Notes - (Research):Entry closed in the 1939 register, though I am sure the entry is hers - her husbands line accidentally has her name ('Emily W') - correction submitted. Clearly her line should be open, given she was born 1899; with entries open up to 1916 it must be badly mis-transcribed.
