I can't see a marriage for Archibald/Archie & Gwendoline anywhere on FreeBMD. Closest one is this Archibald H,A. to a Christobel K. Barron.

As Gwendoline Baker on the 1939 register was 21 years younger than Archibald might she be an older daughter rather than his wife?

Archibald (dob 17/8/1893) and Gwendoline Baker (dob 6/3/1914) are listed in the 1939 register as living at Cromer, Westover Road, Fleet, Hampshire.
They had three children, two boys and a girl.
Please does anyone have more details of this family ?
