I really think this is the correct William (or certainly the correct Everitt family:

Going back to the 1939 posted by Erika for Elizabeth (William's wife):
1939
Durham Household (5 People) 80 Back Of King Edward Street , Grimsby C.B., Lincolnshire (Parts of Lindsey), England

First name(s) Last name(s) DOB Occupation
Elisabeth Everett 22 Jul 1901 Unpaid Domestic Duties
Horace Durham 04 Sep 1901 Fish Trauler Deckland-Week By A
Dennis (Tom) Everett 23 Feb 1932 At School
Margaret Thompson (Everett) 03 May 1936 Under School Age

In that 1939 household with her was Horace Durham:

Name: Sydney Horace Durham - (this would be William's nephew - son of his sister Jane)
Death Age: 71
Birth Date: 4 Sep 1901
Registration Date: Sep 1972
Registration district: Grimsby
Inferred County: Lincolnshire

Tom Dennis Durham Son - Male 5 1906 - Laceby Lincolnshire

Note that Horace's brother was 'Tom Dennis' - the same name as William & Elizabeth's son:

Name: Mother's Maiden Surname:
DURHAM, TOM DENNIS EVERITT ....................................William's nephew.

** I am assuming that Elizabeth and Horace were not 'associated' ? and the children, including Tom Dennis were Williams? However, it was strange though that when William died in 1951 probate was to Eliza Trindall (wife of James) who he was living or at least 'staying' with in 1939.

It is interesting that Horace's brother (William's nephew) had died just 2 years before Tom Dennis Everitt was born so obviously he was named after the first one but had it been his uncle or his cousin he was named after??

Deaths Jun 1930 (>99%)

This is William + Jane + family in 1891:

It does give age 12 for William on the image but perhaps the enumerator forgot to notate days or weeks after the 12.

Elizabeth Annie Jacklin / Corcoran is in 3 members trees on here - go to Search top right of page and then search all members trees. Input details and tree holders will come up. You can then try sending messages to them. Explain why you are trying to find info. - don't just ask for them to open their trees to you.

Don't leave it to chance they try to contact you. And don't be surprised if you don't get n answer - for a variety of reasons !

Repeat with associated names and see what happens.

The Everett / Corcoran Marriage certificate will give declared ages, his occupation and the name and occupation of his Father and possibly whether deceased or not).

Only 3 of them are with the mother in 1939.

One wasn't born until 1940, so that leaves 4 unaccounted-for in 1939.

The Sculcoates birth is almost certainly NOT connected. I picked up on that birth from the d.o.b. for the man posted in Hadleigh in 1939 who is definitely not your William

Look at Maryb's post!

If he died in WW2 there will be a record on the CWGC site

You don't have to guess (or ask anyone) about the names of William's children - the births can all be found on freebmd

Thank you grey ghostlooks like you are all on the right William, I will look if he was away at war as just looking on the 1939 register with him not there and as you said war had broken out ,so he would have been away at war,maybe he died in the war as we cannot trace him ,or he could be the one on the post here who died in 1946,and the family Erica put on from Hull are possibly his parents and sibling ,so grateful to you all for the help

Elizabeth Annie's birth reg. already posted - Q3 1900 - as Jacklin - pre parents marriage. birth could be from mid May-ish to end September as 6 weeks allowed in which to register a birth. Looks as though the informant was out by a year if the death posted by ErikaH is correct.

William around until as least 1939/40 (last child born 1940). But as he would be around age 40/42 when war broke out he could be away from home in the Forces and so not named on the 1939 register. Or away working and unable to find as birth year/date not known.

Hi Erica yes the Elizabeth annie cororan is correct and born 1900/01, I heard they had a son Tom Dennis,so possibly the Dennis Tom you have here is their son,I will check with my cousin ,see if she thinks this could be them ,William seems to have disappeared ,unless he is the one who died in 946 on Mary's reply ,
