The Taylor- Simmons marriage on FBMD is in Horsham Sussex not Suffolk . On the 1911 Maud appears to be a servant in Bracon Ash and dob is around 1886. This may account for her being in Sussex to get married but I have been unable to spot Allen Simmons for certain on Ancestry. There is a Florence M Taylor marriage 1918 Swaffham which is adjacent to Sporle where they were living in 1911 and is also the name of the registration district. ( Free BMD) Ethel M Taylor marriage also Swaffham 1919 Free BMD. May not be the right ones of course but all the names you give including Horace seem to be living in Sporle with a James and Rose Taylor from Watton/Griston etc. There is also a marriage for an Alice M Taylor Swaffham 1906 . Alice Maud is with James and Rose Taylor at Sporle on the 1901 so my original idea that one Maud had been named for a deceased sister does not seem to apply ( I have this happening in my tree) So maybe your ancestors liked the name Maud-my great grandmother had sisters who shared first and second names, I think they ran out of ideas after six. I see Ancestry has an Allen H Simmons marriage record Ontario but I do not have the sub to look at that entry . The only solution I can think of, as you have those names on a death certificate, if you cannot find any other Rosa Barnes and James Taylors marriages, is that your Maud married someone rather younger and rounded down her age.
