I believe there was no penalty for parents not registering a birth prior to 1875. If his mother wasn't a churchgoer, perhaps he wasn't baptized.

A tree on Ancestry has


Robert Galloway
Birth 9 JUL 1854 in Bloomsbury, London
Death Sep 1928 in Kensington, London

Not sure how they have an exact date of birth as they give their sources as census records and English and Wales death index.

Hello rootgatherer

One of the trees on ancestry is the Godden Family, The info for Robert's birth came from Family Search, it gives the birth date, place and mothers name of Catherine.

Also one tree on ancestry has Roberts father and mother, But I cannot find a trace of either of the parents.

I am aware of the problem of not having to register a birth before 1875, which is possibility in this instance.

Thanks for looking it's much appreciated

Tom
