From the GRO index:
Fitzhugh Chorlton RD Births 1901-1911
1904q4 Fitzhugh Herbert Chorlton 8c 922
1905q1 Fitzhugh Marian Elizabeth Chorlton 8c 905
1905q3 Fitz Hugh Hilda Chorlton 8c 865
1907q4 FITZHUGH Alice Chorlton 8c 856

1909q2 FITZHUGH Edna Chorlton 8c 893
1911q1 Fitzhugh Hannah M Chorlton 8c 810


Fitzhugh Chorlton RD Deaths 1901-1911
1907q4 Fitzhugh Alice 0 Chorlton 8c 549
1909q3 FITZHUGH Edna 0 Chorlton 8c 451
1909q3 FITZHUGH Hilda 2 Chorlton 8c 455

It's reasonable to match these deaths up with the births.
From the one quarter gap in the first two births, we conclude there's more than one Fitzhugh family above.

If I click on the "Chorlton" link in a FreeBMD hit, then the mote info "here" link, I get to see all the subdistricts that ever were in Chorlton, viz:
Sub-districts : Ardwick, Barton, Chorlton upon Medlock, Didsbury, Gorton, Hulme, Openshaw, Rusholme, Stretford.
However, if I do an advanced search at http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ for Chorlton within refs RG13 (1901) or RG14 (1911), or both, then I find the only subdistricts in operation for these censuses were:
Didsbury, Ardwick, Chorlton upon Medlock, Hulme

Here's the local index lookup of these births from LancsBMD:

1911 FITZHUGH Hannah M Chorlton-on-Medlock Archives+, Manchester Central Library CHO/219/17

I've sorted them by subdistrict into the 3 families I guess they're from

I can only find one of these families in 1911:
This is in piece rg14/23920, a Hulme subdistrict piece #:

First name(s) Last name Birth year Birth place Registration district Parish County
Herbert Fitzhugh 1881 Lancs Manchester Chorlton South Manchester Lancashire
Maud Fitzhugh 1882 Lancs Ashton U Lyne Chorlton South Manchester Lancashire
Herbert Fitzhugh 1905 Lancs Manchester Chorlton South Manchester Lancashire
Robert Spiby 1852 Lancs Croston Chorlton South Manchester Lancashire

and even then, I'm missing Robt - I guess these are the parents:

As for our mob, they're either missing from the census, or Fitzhugh is recorded or transcribed in a way I can't guess.
