She was born 6th September but you have 6 weeks in which to register the birth and so she was registered sometime between Oct and Dec which would put the birth reg in the 4th quarter.

perhaps Florence used the name Dorothy we knew her as aunty dot I did not know she was Florence till I done my family tree by looking at Patrick lacey's marriage I wonder if she stayed with my aunt georgina French in 1939 in Chelsea

There is a little girl born the following year and it looks as though he then moved areas and there are some more births (can't post as they are probably still living).

That looks to be right Austin - I thought the 1st word could be 'Blue' (terrible writing though).

Can you make out their surnames?

1939:
Now, we have a bit of a mix-up here:

Firstly the address is 63 Watton and there seems to be a Pub name which is not readable.

Thomas Griffiths is not with them, he is in the house next door.

Margaret Hangest? has another person of the same name above her as Manager of Inn but I can't read his first name (ends in 'nge'?) He was born 21st Nov. 1881.

Florence M's surname is LACEY !!

Frorence M is under Mr & Mrs Hangest? and under her is Reginald V ( who is shown in a different household on his own). - under them is a closed record which may well be Patricia?

thank you for your help
I knew Vernon so that was his name. I think perhaps Florence may have had the fathers name on birth cert of Vernon the story was that Florence changed vernons surname to lacey when Patrick her husband was away in the army he was furious and that's why they got a divorce

not sure if Vernon was born in wales

Patricia was both born and married in Kensington reg district.

You would think at age 2 she would have been with her mother in 1939, but I don't see either of them anywhere.

I don't see the birth of a Vernon Price with mms Price in the right time-frame.
Are you sure the name was Vernon?
There's the birth of a Vivian in Brecknock reg district in 1926.

EDIT:
No she would only have been c 14 in 1926.

Alternatively there's a Reginald V Price born Brecknock in 1929 - maybe the V is for Vernon??
Where in Wales was Florence born?
There are two or three possible births in Wales c 1912.
