father Robert is a cotton weaver so its more likely that family

I do have 114 Hancock St Blackburn Lancs oh his marriage cert for 1919 so i suppose he could have moved since 1911 from no.18 Just the sabden worries me - his daughter is 87, still alive and insists he was b in Salford

plus i really cannot find a birth for him anywhere

theres no births reg in salford for a Frederick Bell for that time
the one I listed born salford aged i is actually reg as George Frederick on the births so not your man

i may have to dismiss this one as grandads marriage cert for 1919 has him down as 23yrs that would make him b. 1896

thank you Shirley, its looking like he was b. in Sabden after all - i dont think i'll convince his daughter tho'

thanks for your help Andy - at least i know i'm not going mad now as i couldnt find a birth either

thanks invisible for your help - i think this is the most likely as Sabden Langho and Blackburn are'nt a million miles apart
