hi Jude and patchem you are both hitting the nail on the head harry Goddard born 1887/8 (christened in 1887 but record state born 1888?) I cant find them in 1911 census I believe Harrys dad , Angies great granddad also called harry was in the second boer war as he is missing from the 1901 census ,it is also believed that harry angies granddad born 1888 was a soldier in one of the world wars as he was possibly gassed as his health was not good, ivor henry goddard his son now deceased recollects he died aged approx. 55 yrs old thanks again angela and terry |

So we go back to my suggestion that the informant did not know the actual date of birth. |

I suspect the 1894 birth is not correct...I think might be him in 1891 |

It is not the cut-off date, it is just poor for several war years. |

You state there was a child Ivor Henry born in 1940 - on what basis do you know this? |

Ivor appears to have been the last of nine children born to this couple............. |

Do you have the correct birth year? What is the source of your info? |

The tree on ancestry has his birth as about 1894 in Colchester (as taken from the death index). |
