Mary Ann Titterton from Ely

unless Alfred and Mary had split up - after Rita is born in 1906?
Would Mary and girls go to Hatfield without Alfred?
Mary dies, girls go to orphanage in London? but why would Gwendoline then get married in Hatfield in 1919. What was the connection to Hatfield?

The address on the baptism is Tooting Junction, down in South London, towards Mitcham and not far from Croydon.
Perhaps Mary was dead, hence the orphanage, and Alfred was preparing to marry Beatrice.
Can't be sure when Mary died.

If the Gwendoline in the orphanage was put into a girls school she might have been in service in the Hatfield area, we may never know

Thanks again for trying LM and John! and everyone else who contributed.

I will try to investigate a little more on my own, something may turn up some day.
