I don't see a death for him. Could you tell us what you do know about him? You know something, or you wouldn't be looking for him. Wife's name? Place of marriage and children's birth if any? Just to consider the possibility of him not being in Kent in 1911, e.g.

I don't suppose this might be him?

Young, but people did lie about their ages to sign up. Unfortunately, that's one of the ones with no parents or birthdate listed.

useful confirmation for reference:

Births Dec 1900
Castle Henry William Eastry 2a 978

There's only one way to find out his parents' names: order the birth certificate. Without it, you're likely to remain in the dark.


My grx4 grandmother was a Castle in Wiltshire ... her grandson ended up in Kent ... ;)

Thanks for looking TootyFruity

His name was definitely Henry William though, so not likely to be the same one

Thanks again

Could someone please look up Henry William Castle for me?

Henry was born 1900 in Eastry, Sandwich, Kent. Unfortunately I don't know his parents names or whether he had siblings....so hopefully there won't be too many Henry Wiliam's there!!

Thanks in advance

Gail
