I see Fred on the CWGC site naming his parents but I cannot see a birth for him with Fish as his mothers maiden name

there are two Cooper/fish births 1919 & 1922 and two Drury/Fish births in the 1930s

Don't add up if they married 32 and he was 16 when he died in 1940 ???
Ruby's Husband was Fredrick Fenwick Drury.
