Because of the period involved, you would need to know the church where (and if) they were baptised. You also need to bear in mind that baptisms could take place weeks/months or even years after a birth
If you look at the quarters in which they were born - it would be impossible for all of them to be siblings
March quarter 1908
September quarter 1908
December quarter 1909
June quarter 1910
You really need to establish what you know about these children - apart from their surname - and how they fit into your family history

Using a ladies intuition and dont actually have proof as such but there was a marriage between a
Arthur William Chard and i think an Ada Blanche Alway
Dec quarter 1898 Falmouth
Given the similarity of names i think it's a good shot for at least some of the children.
If you can view a 1901 census for Falmouth would be worth it.

Hi Su
No - you were right to draw attention to it. It looked like a good find on the face of it.
There were 59 "Chard's" in Falmouth in 1901 and 106 entries in total throughout Cornwall
Tidgie has a couple of options:
Buy all birth certs - very expensive!!
Get more info from relatives to pin down which family is which
If she has Chard ancestry then a birth cert of one of her known Chard ancestors will give parents names and mothers maiden name

It would have helped if you had included that info in your post and would have saved a lot of wasted effort by Su & myself
