Thanks I already have the 1911 one with Parents William and Caroline as that is the family I am tracing I am trying to find correct Birth for Robert as the ones I have looked at appear to not be the right ones. The Cluer family are a complicated ones with 2nd marriages and step kids etc. also William and Caroline were never married despite the 1911 census saying they were I am interested in the Adopted one that may well fit the bill as William Charles Cluer 's first wife was Elizabeth Ward Thanks Pam

This looks like the right birth record (well it matches the date of birth you give) although you say in an earlier post that you already have his birth certificate:-

First name(s) ROBERT
Last name CLUER
Birth year 1904
Birth quarter 1
Registration month -
Mother's last name -
District ISLINGTON
County London
Country England
Volume 1B
Page 198

On the image for the 1911 census for Robert Cluley the name is definitely Cluley and there is a birth for a Robert Cluley:-

First name(s) ROBERT DICKERSON
Last name CLULEY
Birth year 1903
Birth quarter 3
Registration month -
Mother's last name -
District HOLBORN
County London
Country England
Volume 1B
Page 705

This birth would not match up with the birth in Islington Workhouse.
