So, the two babies born about 1899/1900 were first cousins (fathers were brothers). One was registered and died aged 6 and the other was probably a few months older (to fit between her siblings), wasn't registered and ended up with her cousin's dob!

Also.... the child who lived to adulthood enjoyed a variety of forenames....

Margaret
May
Mae
Martha
Mary
and an additional initial O at her marriage.

The child that died was Mary on her birth cert which is what both babies were listed as in 1901.
