thanks keith, i don't know anything about frederick. cecil only had a brother bertie (Albert)b 1893,could be a cousin, i dont have any relations to ask. i wonder if my father (cecil 1917) may have been registered in his mothers name?

I spent ages looking for my great uncle Arthur on 1837 - he appeared on the 1881 and 1891 Census as such. Eventually found he had been registered as Walter. Arthur doesn't even appear on his birth certificate as a second name. Confusing or what? Jan.
