Possibly a red herring, but the use of mother's maiden name as middle name for a daughter is apparently a Scottish custom. Maybe mum was a Scot?

Not just Scottish!
And not always mother's maiden name - in my tree it tends to be maternal grandmother's maiden name ;D

Yes I figured that too! I have found an incoming passengers record in 1915 for Jane Gordon Robinson with her mother and siblings coming back from Quebec, Canada. Can't actually see a record for them going outwards, I am wandering where the father is at this point?! \

I also can't find any record of this family in the 1901 or 1911 census (presuming they may be in Canada in 1911)

Looks like them in Canada 1911;

JANE Robinson born Sept 1903**

1911 Canada Census
Cape Breton North-Victoria Sub-Districts 1-39, Nova Scotia, Canada
John Robinson, Head, M, 48, born England (birth May 1863)
Jane Robinson, Wife, F, 24, born England (birth March 1887)   England
Jane Robinson, Daughter, F, 8, born England (birth Sept 1903)
William Robinson, Servant, M, 3, born   England (birth Nov 1908)
Henriette Robinson, Daughter, F, 1, born Cape Breton (birth March 1910)

This is on Familysearch.Org.
I dont think Williams is a Servant, should be Son!
Jane (the Mothers) age may be out also
No image is available to check all of this.

Armed with that have found a Tree;

Death Reg, Dec 1973, Durham Western;
Name Jane Robinson
Death Age   91
Birth Date   14 Jan 1882

1901 Census Jane Gordon is born c 1881 Burnopfield, Durham
Parents William GORDON and Jane McCUTCHEON

It might be worth trying to contact them to see if they have the 1902 M/C.

You can see the image of the 1911 Canada Census on the Library and Canada Archives site -the surname has been transcribed as Roberson. John Robinson is a miner and the year of emigration is given as 1908.
