The child theme’s style.css contains absolutely no code, just a standard header comment. It is the only file added — no functions.php, nothing.
Once it did have one css addition — the one you show in your web site’s tutorial on customizing a theme — changing the height of the header. The home page showed the same anomaly. I removed the css, but the anomaly remained. Could WordPress be caching something that might cause the anomaly to persist?
I will start over, deleting the child theme and recreating it.
