Just to say sometimes the certs dont always have the correct age or names.
I have one rellie of my husbands whose age is different on both her marriagecert,.the census and her death cert.

Looking at one of the certs it has the year the event happened as 1899. However looking closer there is a line which could have been the marriage was 1890. If this was the case this made her age nearer to the most likely. Certainly she was living with the man in 1891.
GRO bmds are copies sent to the office from local reg offices . Back then they sent them every 3 months.

I have several certs now with wrong names.

eg:death cert with Mary instead of Mercy. It was only the unusual double barrelled name (which was also transcribed wrong) that got me to send for it.
The bonus being she was a baby sister of my gt grandfather I didnt know about.

So sometimes its a mistake between offices or the person transcribing hasnt checked properly. I looked for ages for my grandmother with middle name May.Her cert has her as Mary middle name.

My other grans birth cert says Constant Ruby sex boy. Shoulsd of course read Constance Ruby. Dont think they did sex changes in 1889.

But you are looking for Frederick William Robinson. He should have the William middle name on his birth. This one cant be yours
