Mary is shown as born Italy because they were all just dittoed as that as I wrote earlier. The enumerator presumably decided.

Ok Heywood. That does tend to happen. Dittoing the same birth place regardless of whether it is accurate! Can throw you off track a bit when enumerators do that. Checking other census years should hopefully clarify matters, but not always.

Yes you are right but from your information from
https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/indexes_search.asp
and 1911 census information Mary’s birth can be seen to be Wandsworth.
One would imagine that there was limited English spoken by those families and the enumerator unlikely to have Italian, it would be easier to just ditto.
