Look for the marriage of the parents on freebmd to ascertain mother’s name

Violet Emma's birth is on freebmd , its says her mothers maiden name is Duffield, I dont know the mothers first name, I was hoping i could find her on 1911 census, or if someone could find if her birth was registered.

You say Violet's birth is 1906 on freebmd but then you ask if anyone could find if she was registered ??

You also say you found on freebmd that her Mothers' surname was Duffield - but freebmd doesn't give mmn pre Q3 1911

Look for a marriage on freebmd between an Eagland and Duffield in the area that Violet was born. There is only 1 anywhere England/Wales between 1871 and 1911 so that will give you the forenames.

1911 census says parents have been married 18 years -14 children born to the 1892 marriage - 8 still living 6 have died. Have you found all those births/deaths.
I can see 13 births and 5 deaths - I've either missed one, there has been a spelling error for one of the surnames or possibly a still birth that was incorrectly counted and wouldn't show on birth/death indexes

There are 8 children listed on the 1911. so 5/6 birth/deaths to find

Look at the 1901 census - any children there not on the 1911 - are there gaps between ages to give clues as to when births/deaths may have occurred.

Use the free site (you have to register) to look for the births

As ErikaH has already said, Violet Emma Eagland will not be on the 1911 census as she died soon after birth in 1906.

It looks like the parents are Henry (Harry) and Lydia.
