Gin He must of come back to sign on for his army duty when he signed up on 27/10/1915 from longworth.if I read it correctly.Many thanks for your help Gins Take care Bob

This looks like him going out. He give his arrival on the 1911 census as '1911'

As the travel date is March, he would have missed the UK 1911 census as that was taken in April

I used the same site. I had 'checked' Canadian record only at the bottom of the search box

Gin ,I am getting a warm feeling,May I ask where did you find that as I have just purchased Ancestry world wide bob

I looked at this one earlier but discounted it due to the occupation, but having thought on, he might have gone into engineering during his service?

Gins, Bugger in a nice way ?how did I miss that,Swindon is only abt 30 miles from Longworth.Ithink I was looking in the wrong place,thrown by the Canadian Army thing.Many thanks for that Bob

Gins off ancestry between April and June 1892,he is 8 yrs old on 1901 census Bob

If the details on that death registration are correct, then I think it must be him as this is the only birth that ties in with the DOB
