Am looking for Nans 'Uncle Bills' birth. Although he was known as Uncle Bill we have his name as Charles William Andrews. All other siblings reg in Romford district. He was one of the youngest and have children confirmed births as 1899, 1903, dec 1905. Have always been told the one in 1905 was the youngest child but nothing surprises me anymore with my Andrews lot. Any help appreciated before I go goggle eyed.

Have you looked for 'Bill's' birth under his mother's maiden name, it could be he was born out of marriage and therefore his surname would have been his mothers at birth. I couldnt find my Grandfather's older brother for months until someone suggested this and low and behold found him straight away Regards Sue
