It is possible to do free searches to that census on FindMyPast  :).  As we all have to pay extra for getting the full information then you can find out as much as we can before we have to pay to see the record  :)

Bessie Brooker Age:   23
Record Type:   Admission
Admission Date:   6 Mar 1914
Admission Place:   Westminster, St Marylebone, London, England

Bessie           Brooker 1890
Violet Elizabeth ditto 1914
Record Type:   Discharge
Discharge Date:   7 May 1914
Discharge Place:   London, England, Westminster, St Marylebone

Violet Elizabeth BROOKER no mothers maiden name - 
GRO Reference: 1914  J Quarter in ST. MARYLEBONE  Volume 01A  Page 928


I forgot to add that these Workhouse records can be found on Anc*y - London, England, Workhouse Admission and Discharge Records, 1764-1930

I was going to add image of the two entries just in case you didn't have access, as this post is on the lookup board an image cannot be added.
 
On Bessie BROOKER admission in 1914 it gives her occupation as Barmaid and reason for admission Dest. & pregnant and on their discharge 1914 it was at "Own Request"

ADDED

On her marriage to Frederick George ROBSON it looks to me as if her father is named FRANK Brooker, deceased, labourer but on this baptism record her father is named JOHN  :-\

Bessie dob matches that given on the  WWI Pension Record Cards and Ledgers posted

Bessie BROOKER birth 3 Apr 1891
Baptism 31 May 1891 Farnborough, St Peter, Surrey
Father:   John Brooker, Gardener Mother:   Elizabeth
abode The Oaks, Farnborough

John not with Elizabeth & Bessie 1891

The Oaks
John Brooker. Age: 26 M occ Gardener
Relationship:   Servant
Birth Place:   Cove, Hampshire
Civil parish:   Farnborough
Registration district:   Hartley Wintney
Piece:   954 Folio:   7

Edit to add this looks as if it could be Bessie's birth entry

Bessie BROOKER mmn WOOD 
GRO Reference: 1891  J Quarter in HARTLEY WINTNEY  Volume 02C  Page 184

and her parents marriage

24 May 1890 Farnborough, St Peter, Surrey

John BROOKER age 26 occ Gardener
father James, labourer

Elizabeth WOOD 26
father Thomas, carpenter

Looks as if Elizabeth Brooker is with her parents on 1891 census in Wood Heath transcribed as WOOD - originals reads Brooker Piece:   955 Folio:   18

Thomas Wood 66 Head occ Carpenter
Mary Wood 64   Wife
George Wood30   Son
Elizabeth Wood   27 Daughter 'M' Cove, Hampshire
Harriet Wood 31   Daughter 'M'

What amazing research Ladyhawk and John.

To say 'Very well done', seems an understatement.
