I wonder if it's just a fluke that Robert's first wife was Mary Ann Shaw and the spare child with Susan Wilson in 1901 is Violet M Shaw?

I realise the surname Shaw is very common in Yorks.

The baby is

Births Dec 1900
Shaw Violet Mercia York 9d 9


and her parents are


Name: Violet Mercia Shaw
Gender: Female
Baptism/Christening Date: 28 Oct 1900
Baptism/Christening Place: St. Maurice's, York, York, England
Birth Date:
Birthplace:
Death Date:
Name Note:
Race:
Father's Name: William Shaw
Father's Birthplace:

Mother's Name: Sarah

Probably a red herring, but posting it in case the details are needed later!
