I can't pin him down. Have you got his father's name from the marriage cert?

Birth if you need to get this:

Births Sep 1903 (>99%)
Parker William Stanley Christchurch 2b 652

Folks, don't know about you but I think we need more info. If he was born Christchurch isn't that Hampshire? There are just too many possibles.

Not with any degree of certainty I'm afraid Avril. You need to work your way back with certificates, it's the only way.

Christine2 Report 1 Aug 2010 12:11

Christchurch is in Hampshire Avril.

Dea

Dea Report 1 Aug 2010 12:13

No way without that cert I am afraid Avril.

I see no link to Mary + Louise on any of them on 1911.

Have you tried searching trees on this site, just in case?

Maybe there's more than one!! From Freebmd entry linked from the Christchurch birth above:

CHRISTCHURCH REGISTRATION DISTRICT

a) 1837 to 1925

Registration County : Hampshire.

You need the marriage cert.

There is someone called Ken who has a William Parker born 1903 in Southampton Hants. It would be worth contacting him.
p.s. Also a Max has him
