Well the record for Hubert shows he has a two other Christian names

The J Could be forJustin

And Catherine could be Catherine Bridget

My friend is there second cousin and remember the four children and names...I wondered if Justin was a middle name his work connected him with the Finnish Embassy and was high up in his job

This is possible that they were known by one of their other Christian names

Births Dec 1929
Staples Hubert A J Pownall Weymouth 5a 376

Births Sep 1933
Staples Catherine B Pownall Tonbridge 2a 1408

According to a tree on ancestry he retired from the India service in 1934
They only list the two girls

How do you connect Justin and Bridget to them
