and would like to do a little detective work? :-)

Right, I have a poser..
I "think", I have got it right but I would like to see if any one else comes up with the same results as I have.

I dont mind being proven wrong just want to see if I have worked it out right.
Here is all the information I had to start off with...
... William WILFORD Bn 1897 Mansfield, Nottinghamshire...
Reg: Sep qtr.Mansfield 7b 122 .

From the above info can anyone else trace what happened to William between birth and death.
ie... possible marriage/children/names/dates and places if any.

I have pieced together dates places and names, I just want to see if anyone comes to the same conclusions as myself.

Hi Ann sweetie,
I have everything about William before 1911 its after then, that I came up against it. :-(

I reckon I might have cracked it, but hoping that another pair of eyes may see it differently to me. :-)
