looking for a male born between 1920 & 1929. Some very kind person on here found a James W born 1925 but when this came to a dead end I looked at deaths and found a James W died aged 0 in 1926. I am still looking for the brother of Arthur George Born 1929. Parents were Ellen Allen nee Neal and father Albert H Allen. There are hundreds of Allens born between these dates so if anyone has a quicker method of looking up I would be extremely grateful. Thanks Lynn Allen

Thank you Glitter Baby - how do you find this info so quickly? I have spent hours and hours trying to look this up.
This would make sense as he prob took his fathers name. Parents married in mid 1920.
Will now try and trace the marriage ( I think to Ivy) and his death.
Beginning to wonder why I started this !!
