I posted it for the benefit of the helpers, who don't have all the info you do - dates of birth.

There's this birth ?? Perhaps he changed his middle name? or his parents did after the birth was registered?
I don't see any Moynes/Stone marriages in England/wales 1870-84, nor do I see a John Augustus Moynes in censuses so far.

MOYNES, THOMAS AUGUSTUS mms STONE
GRO Reference: 1885 M Quarter in ISLINGTON Volume 01B Page 373


That would fit with an Oct 1884 birth not being registered until 1st quarter 1885.


EDIT:

SORRY -

of course that's Thomas's birth, not John - I'm confusing myself.

Is this your John in 1939? It doesn't say solder or engineer, so maybe not.

If so, posting it for the sake of dates of birth.

That's correct Shirley, I have the 1901.

The 1911 cens shows 4 children so I assume the 4th would be my John William but where is he?

Your help please.
John William Moynes b1884 as on 1939 reg. he was a soldier (engineer) I can't find a birth reg. in UK. His father was Thomas as on his 1912 m cert . Thomas was also an engineer, on 1911 census shows Thomas b1857 with wife Elizabeth b1859 in Bermuda plus 2 sons James born Bermuda and Thomas A. born Middx.(on 1901 cens.) and Annie E. b1881 Bermuda.
Elizabeth and son James born Bermuda are British subjects by parentage.
Thomas and Elizabeth married 1877 possibly Bermuda as can't find in UK.
According to GRO child Thomas A. b1885 Middx. MMN is Stone.
Address on 1911cens/1912 m cert/various elec rolls all match.
So was John William born in Bermuda and where was he in 1911?
Are you able to find Bermuda marriage?
Are you able to find Elizabeth (Stone) born with English parents in Bermuda?
Thank you in advance.
