	Death information is only as good as the informant's knowledge. ....It's not that far out. What else have you got to pinpoint his age.... Marriage cert. baptism entry, actual birth certificate, forces enlistment papers? Gwyn

	Not alot of sense...... but not impossible either. Perhaps it was a nickname from a second name or surname? Don't dismiss the possibility that they could be the same person..... What other evidence do you have? Gwyh
