Taking into consideration that if Kenneth Walker was born late December 1920, his birth was probably not registered until 1921.

Having said that.......i cannot see a birth registered for a Kenneth Walker 1920/1921 mmn Roberts.

When and where did the Walker/Roberts marriage take place?

I also can't see any births registered for Olive and Hilda ...mmn Roberts between 1910 and 1930.

When and where were Olive and Hilda born?

As you obviously knew that his first name was John, why did you refer to him as Kenneth?

What is your connection?

And what are you actually looking for?

Have you looked to see if anyone on here has him or his parents in their tree, and then tried to make contact?
