Member Since: March 2006 Posts: 5,276 Send Message	I would advise the first thing to do would be to buy his marriage cert to check his father's name and occupation. His age seems to be consistent after his marriage. 1901 England Census about William Coulstock Name: William Coulstock Age: 40 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1861 Relation: Head Spouse's Name: Lucy Gender: Male Where born: Penshurst, Kent, England Civil parish: Reigate Ecclesiastical parish: St Matthew Town: Redhill County/Island: Surrey Country: England Registration district: Reigate Sub-registration district: Reigate ED, institution, or vessel: 13 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 90 Household Members: Name Age William Coulstock 40 Lucy Coulstock 37 Fred Coulstock 10 Annie Coulstock 8 William Coulstock 6 Daisy A Coulstock 4 Elizabeth C Coulstock 3 Christine

	Like the other's have said it was not compulsory to register a birth then, but more likley that he was baptised, so try searching the parish records for Chiddingstone, which are held at the Centre for Kentish Studies, Maidstone. If you cannot get to Maidstone, then contact the Kent Family History Society as they may have some one that can do the search for you

	I am really confused now. I cant afford to buy all the birth certs to see which is right or not. I am always confused with censuses, i dont know why, it is really simple i know but for some reason my head never gets the information right. Thankyou for finding all this information for me. Joanne

There seems to be a couple of William Coulstocks born about that time in the Chiddingstone/Penshurst area. Take care you don't get them muddled. Ozi

Member Since: March 2006 Posts: 5,276 Send Message	That's the best thing to do and if his father is named as William and his age matches as being born 1860 then I think that is his birth registration that I found mistransribed as Cowlstock. Christine

Member Since: March 2006 Posts: 5,276 Send Message	Hi Joanne, You asked if you have the right William? I presume that this is your William in 1891 1891 England Census about William Coulstock Name: William Coulstock Age: 30 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1861 Relation: Head Spouse's Name: Lucy Gender: Male Where born: Penshwest, Kent, England Civil parish: Reigate Foreign Ecclesiastical parish: Redhill St Matthew Town: Reigate County/Island: Surrey Country: England Registration district: Reigate Sub-registration district: Reigate ED, institution, or vessel: 13 Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age William Coulstock 30 Lucy Coulstock 27 Fred Coulstock 3/12 Do you have his marriage cert naming his father as William?

Member Since: March 2006 Posts: 5,276 Send Message	This looks like your William in 1861 1861 England Census about William Cowlstoch Name: William Cowlstoch Age: 7 Mo Estimated Birth Year: abt 1860 Relation: Nephew Gender: Male Where born: Penshurst, Kent, England Civil parish: Chiddingstone Ecclesiastical parish: St Mary County/Island: Kent Country: England Registration district: Sevenoaks Sub-registration district: Penshurst ED, institution, or vessel: 5c Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 115 Household Members: Name Age Henry Huntly 43 Eliza Huntly 42 Henry Huntly 13 Eliza Huntly 11 Mary A Huntly 8 William Huntly 5 Charles Huntly 3 William Cowlstoch 7 Mo Marriages Mar 1845 (>99%) Coulstock Eliza Sevenoaks 5 469 Huntley Henry Sevenoaks 5 469 This is probably his birth reg Births Dec 1860 (>99%) COWLSTOCK William Sevenoaks 2a __ I have checked the image on ancestry and the page and vol no are 2a 375. This could be his father in 1861 as he is a widowed, birth year in 1871 is 1835. 1861 England Census about William Coulstock Name: William Coulstock Age: 28 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1833 Relation: Servant Gender: Male Where born: Chiddingstone, Kent, England Civil parish: Penshurst County/Island: Kent Country: England Registration district: Sevenoaks Sub-registration district: Penshurst ED, institution, or vessel: 3 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 50 Household Members: Name Age William Beale 30 William Coulstock 28 James Seal 20 George Coulstock 16 William Seal 12 Jane Malin 20 Elizabeth Sears 55 He must have remarried to Jane and therefore she wouldn't be the mother of William 1860.

	GR's pages are not relevant The ONLY page number which matters is the one on the GRO index. In this case, one of the births is on Page 415 - the other is on Page 416 And both are too late to refer to a child whose age on the 1871 census is recorded as 10 years.

	Any child whose birth was registered in AMJ 1862 would be aged 8 (or 9 if the reg'n was late)in 1871 - NOT 10.
