Searching Ida & Cecil's mother Annie Roberts nee Close:
Judging from this site's PRs Annie is a very popular Roberts name, but I believe this is our Annie (NB father is William as per Marriage Record);

NB: This site also contains Baptism & Burial PRs for Annie Elizabeth Close, born Drybrook abt the same time & to father William, however I think her Marriage record rules her out of this "equation".
