Mollie Parker ne Peters c 1875 and Journalist Spouse Henry Parker

[NormanE]

Please can you help me resolve a puzzle.
I have a  1903 birth certificate for Guy Patten Parker born at a Teddington address to Henry Parker a journalist and Molly ne Peters.  I can see Molly as Mollie Parker in the 1901 Census at the same address but without Henry present and as a widow in the 1911 census visiting with three of her five children at Kingston on Thames.
Who was Molly Peters and who was Henry Parker, when was there a marriage?.
So far I have been totally without clues

Ancestry is suggesting that Molly is Mary Peters born Shepperton, daughter of William & Elizabeth.

Halford mentioned as her place of birth in 1901 could be Halliford which is part of Shepperton. The place given later with an r added into the middle is next to Halliford though the county given is wrong.

1881

I think this may be worth investigating further    Molly/ie is a common pet name for Mary

I think it may be better if we kept the information to one post so will carry on here

Hello I am Guy Patten Parker's youngest granddaughter, Andrea Parker, my father Cyril George Patten Parker (named after his uncle) dropped the Patten and it does not appear on my birth certificate. My mother says my father believed it had been a pretentious addition to the surname of Parker to appease a relative? Though this may be complete rubbish?! I was born in 1967 some 9 years after Guy died. However Guy has one surviving son my uncle Graeme Parker. I am in contact with him and can pass on any questions you may have.

Sorry just another thought... I believe that the Parkers were originally Quakers if that helps with any searches.
