There are 2 birth registrations for Emma Lines in 1845 that might relate to a birth in Oxfordshire:
Emma Lines - registered in Apr-Jun quarter 1845, Banbury registration district; mother's maiden name BUSBY
Emma Lines - registered in Oct-Dec quarter 1845, Brackley registration district; mother's maiden name TOY
There is one more in 1843 that is possible:
Emma Lines - registered in Oct-Dec quarter 1843, Banbury registration district; mother's maiden name WIMBUSH
(There are only 2 places in Oxfordshire in Brackley registration district: Finmere and Mixbury; Banbury registration district stretches to parts of 4 counties)
In 1851:
Chipping Warden, Northamptonshire (Banbury registration district): Emma Lines, age 7, daughter of Jonas and Elizabeth
Swalcliffe, Oxfordshire (Banbury registration district): Emma Lines, age 6, daughter of William and Ann
Eydon, Northamptonshire (Brackley registration district): Emma Lines, age 5, daughter of William and Ann
Only one was actually born in Oxfordshire; her parents are indeed William and Ann, but the mother's maiden name does not match (Busby not Gardiner.) It is difficult to be confident that this is a match to someone born in about 1845 in an area as large as Oxfordshire.
But, if that Emma is right, then
Emma Lines was born in 1845 at Swalcliffe in Oxfordshire,
the daughter of William Lines and his wife Ann, formerly Ann Busby.
[5].
In 1851, Emma was living at Swalcliffe
with her parents William and Ann and their other children.
Her age was given as 6, implying a birth date in 1844 or 1845.
Her birthplace was given as Swalcliffe, Oxfordshire.
[6]
It is hard to see how the information apparently provided by the death registration can be reconciled with any of the births
Further note: Frederick and Emma Winzer seem to have had at least 7 children born in Victoria, between 1873 and 1887. The "mother's family name at birth" attached to these are:
Lines (4 times)
Sines (once) - presumably an error for Lines
Sims (once) - maybe a variant of Lines/Sines
Brooks (once) - presumably meaning her name before marriage rather than "at birth"
