from the new GRO Index

ROBERTS, THOMAS BAVIS

It looks as though Thomas b. 1910 is the one who died, and then they gave the same name to the baby born in 1916

Researching:
My brother, photo taken in September 1991 just a couple of weeks before he died. ............................................................ To help us and to get better results, please post as much detail as you can, especially name, date(s) and place. Also say what you already know.

I have Thomas Roberts b. 1880 married to Jane Roberts/Bavis b. 1889. They married in 1909. These are my grandparents and they had five children - Catherine b. 1912, Thomas b. 1916, William b. 1918, Margaret b. 1921 and Lavinia b. 1924 ... but my Mom once told me that there was another baby that died but that was all she knew.

I am trying to find them in the 1911 census but the only ones I can find are boarding with a Murray family in Eldon Street, St. Helens. They have a 10 month old son named Thomas with them and I wonder if this is the baby that died. I've found two deaths in freebmd - one in 1912 age 1 and one in 1915 age 5. Is the only way I can find the correct one to send for the certificate??
