Could we have some dates, please?
Have you looked to see whether others have Samsons of Southwark in their trees on here?

This is a Frederick, but no Reginald's showing:
Births Jun 1917
Samson Frederick S King Southwark 1d 77

You have Reginald born 1914 in your tree. Have you found his birth in free bmd?
Thanks

Is'nt that him posted above transcribed as Samsun?? All the other infomation has been given relating to his parents also

How do you know his Mother's maiden name is King?
There have been births posted for Reginald and Frederick with spelling SamsUN, mother's maiden name Churchman. Are these wrong?
If Reginald were born in December 1914 his birth could be registered at the end of 1914, or in the beginning of 1915.
Do you know when Frederick died?
Have you got your parents' marriage certificate for your grandfather's name?
Thanks.
