Is this the right birth?

Births Sep 1922 (>99%)

Lee Eric R Cherry Barnet 3a 679




If correct have you looked for a marriage?




Probably the wrong birth as there is a marriage for Ralph Lee to Cherry in Barnet in 1915

There is this birth but you really need his marriage certificate or son's birth certificate.
