This may be a bit wild - but Letitia Pickering is on the 1891 census on Ancestry, the same parents Ralph and Hannah as the christening. Ralph is aged 32, and there are two Ralph Pickerings on GR trees b. 1860 though it doesn't say where (which of course probably means they aren't v. close relations to the tree owners). But it might be worth contacting them.

This seems a shame, but possibly she never married, and according to 1911 they only had one child:
