Find Ancestors

I am trying to pinpoint exactly my Grandfathers date of birth so I can buy the right Birth Certificate, he was born 1904 possibly June in Willesden London. There is a registration for Islington. Can anybody tell me does this registration relate to William Henry son of Herbert and Sophia Bennett?

For a birth in Willesden the reg district would be Hendon

If he died after 1967 is it Jonesey,his birth date would show on his death ref wouldnt it?

But of course Paul would need to know When and Where he died if it was before 1984.

Did the family move to Burton on Trent?

Willesden was in the Hendon district until 1909

This is the right family, Herbert & Sophia did indeed move back to Burton (where Herbert came from).
I just need to pinpoint when William was born so I can get the right BC.
Thanks all for your help on this. Keep it up.

If he died after 1967 I think,his birth date would show on his death ref wouldnt it?

But of course Paul would need to know When and Where he died if it was before 1984,and a good idea of where after 1984.

I don't know when William Henry died, he was an Artillery Soldier and left his son William Herbert born 1932 when his wife Rose (Rosa) died in that same year. I have no track of him after that.

Can anyone else confirm that a birth registration in the Willesden/Acton area would likely have been registered in Hendon in 1903?

If you look on freebmd for the William Bennett births listed above, you can click on the word Hendon, ...to see places included in that registration area.
