Yes the guy in Nuneaton died 12 mths later. However there are some similarities in surrounding names. Mum remembers a grandma Bertha and an aunt Polly. We think Polly was really mum, but Bertha brought him up. As he was born around same time wondered if they took on my William to replace the one that died & he wasn't registered???? :-S

The only infant death was in Auckland district - matched with a birth

There is also a death in 1914 of a 3-yr old........matched with a birth

So could have been registered with a different birth name

Who was his mother?

Are you making an assumption about his birth location based on marriage location?

What was his declared age when he married?

Marriages Jun 1932 (>99%)
Lee William E Skitt Ashton 8d 1267
Skitt Agnes Lee Ashton 8d 1267

I'm struggling with my grandad. Can't find a birth cert (the one I found died a year later - so not him). Yet he turns upon Marraige cert to my gran in 1932. Family tradition says he was the illegitimate son of a Jewish doctor, but no father on marraige cert.
He married Agnes Skitt and had 3 girls Dorothy, Joyce and Patricia.
Sound familiar?
