Thanks to everyone for their replies on the parents  of  Gladys & Gloria Wood,I think I will have to get the marriage cert for Gloria in 1936  to Octavio Paranagua  hopefully that might shed a bit of light on the elusive parents
Do you have to pay full price for the marriage cert or can you get a pdf scan of it?
Thanks  again to everyone trying to solve this'

I found this sad report about her death. It says she has lost 2 husbands but her Probate notice say that she is the wife of William Langworthy BAKER.

from the passenger list, she was alone on the round trip to Yokohama.

He was a beneficiary of her will

1911 census
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XWV9-JBG?lang=en
& baptism in Aden
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FGC7-SRX?lang=en

Haven't spotted another marriage for him.

So, what happened to Guy Herbert between the 1901 census & Ethel Muriel's second marriage?
