Its ok thank you --- its believed that the person changed their name but as there has been help on the name the person was known as I'd best leave it at that

many thanks any way

by trying to narrow down the the place of birth was thought that it might be a bit easier to locate

I think you are looking for a birth in Cheshire rather than Lancashire.

Manchester for a fact. Manchester Records Office. Birth place would possibly be Wythenshawe Hospital, only hospital with a maternity unit. Other nearest is Withington which is in Chorlton

Did it exist in 1912 ??

Historically in Cheshire,[1] in 1931 Wythenshawe was transferred to the City of Manchester, which had begun building a massive housing estate there in the 1920s to resolve the overpopulation and deprivation in its inner-city slums. With an area of approximately 11 square miles (28 km2), Wythenshawe has been referred to as one of the largest council housing estates in Europe,[2] although private ownership has grown.

The district comprises eight areas: Baguley, Benchill, Peel Hall, Newall Green, Woodhouse Park, Moss Nook, Northenden,[3] and Sharston. The boundaries of these areas have changed throughout the district's history, and previously known areas such as Brownley Green and Crossacres have since been assimilated into one of the areas listed, though many residents still refer to them by name.

The three ancient townships of Northenden, Baguley, and Northen Etchells formally became the present-day Wythenshawe when they were merged with Manchester in 1931. Until then, the name had referred only to Wythenshawe Hall and its grounds.[4]
