Daniel just make sure you're following the right man! You say you "think" that the one born Birmingham is yours - you need to establish that for a fact. Have you got James' marriage certificate to confirm who his father was? |

I think my James is the one from Birmingham. |

There are two James Merriman born 1906 on the 1911 - a James L born Nanpanton Leics and a James born Birmingham. Are either of these yours? You didn't say where yours was born. |

Thanks for the info guys I'm hitting a bit of a brick wall because although I find a record in the 1911 census where he's 5 years old, I can't find a birth record, I just thought a military record might fill in some gaps... |

I don't think that military records from the 1930s are available online. I think that you have to apply for them and there is a charge. Also I am sure you have to prove your relationship to the person. |
