Or is the son Alfred actually William? I don't see a birth for Alfred.

Look for info using freebmd

WILLS, EMILY ELIZABETH LOUISA mmn CUSHWAY
GRO Reference: 1906 M Quarter in SOUTHWARK Volume 01D Page 124

WELLS, JAMES ALEXANDER mmn CUSHWAY
GRO Reference: 1904 M Quarter in SOUTHWARK Volume 01D Page 105

Born 1901, would be no more than 10 years old in 1911

Have you looked for a death?

Not on 1939 as far as I can see

1911 says that Alfred and Emily had had 5 children, of whom two had died.

Can’t see the supposed 1958 death of Emily on freebmd - where did she die? Was her name still Wills?

WILLS, FLORENCE ETHEL 1

Can't see a fifth one, apart from possibly Alfred, whose birth I can't find..
In which case, William would have to be the other deceased child - but don't see his death.

my father and uncle were alfred/emily children sidney and reginald born 1912 and 1920

Have you done any research yourself?

The child born 1915 was NOT Sidney at registration

Look at freebmd

According to the 1939 register Reginald was born 29 Dec 1919

Please answer the queries raised earlier in this thread. Thank you
