HAYWARD Arlingham (Parish Records)

The 1911 Census should say if any of those 8 children were now dead.
I presume it shows at least one dead, as you say the first Edith.
You're correct in thinking the second name was used again "in memory" of the first one, this was quite common practice in the days of high child mortality rates. Or maybe those names were repeated as they had appeared earlier within the family line eg Mary's mother etc ? (sorry, I havent checked the rest of this thread).

Anyhow, from this FoD sites PRs we can find:

Hopefully these events are reflected within the 1861 etc Census for this household.

Also, just in case the above Baptisms were not near to the actual births, worth crosschecking elsewhere.
