Well, this is the above Herbert 1891 - shoe finisher. Maybe you found the wrong one? You have no evidence that Herbert was born 1885 as far as I can see.

If you are sure Harry Lucas is your then we have the right family.

Yes I'll check Herbert's year of birth again, but I think I'll send off for the Birth Cert of Harry to make sure. Your 1911 marriage entry looks good. Ninjalady, Look thanks for all this, much learnt. d

If you do get the birth cert, . let us know the result won't you, would be interested to know!
"Bit of a Herbert" - very good! We've all been there, in my case many times. Just goes to show, don't make any assumptions.

Don't worry John, we've all made mistakes or leapt to conclusions!!

The moral of the story - get certificates each step of the way, if you can afford them!


If the information on the certificate matches the information posted here, then these will probably be your next steps back

The birth registration for Herbert - Ashby de la Zouch registration covers Netherseals which is the place of birth on the early census.
