Dea.Thank you for getting back to me..Just shows me that Ihave to double check for the facts as that was the wrong person I picked The data look good ref Birth and marriage area of Oxford,but with the 1911 census it proved that it was a load of rubbish that Ihad. Mildred is his first wife,and Emma M Batts his second Sept 1941 Watford.(I hope)Once again many thanks for all your help and hard work Bob xx ;-)

Bob

Youve marked as answered and you still want the 1911!

Someone with Find My Past subs should be able to find the 191 for you but you'll need to un tick the answered box
