BUT the ref to Mar 1891 is the quarter the birth was registered not the month he was born.
Its a unique name so think its the only one. You NEED to get the actual birth cert for his birth.

Giving you an example. My Dad was born 28th Dec 1907. .you have 42 days ie6 weeks to register a birth, in those days mums didnt leave to house for 21 after the birth,called the lying in period. My gran registered Dad in late Jan 1908 so his birth registration comes under the Mar qtr of 1908.Getting the birth cert for the GRO ref shows his ACTUAL birth date of 28th Dec 1907.

This would seem to be his death then, However, are you SURE that 'your' Harry had the middle name Ditchfield because this does not add up?
