Or very quick on his feet!!!

Sorry-couldn't help it. Lions rampant.

The death certificate will only show the name that is given by the person informing of the death.
If that person has only ever called him Frank, then that is the name that would be written.
Same with the age. If the informant says he was 102 then that's what would be recorded.
It's not checked against anything official.

As for lion shearer ... well he must have been a brave chap to shear a lion !!!!!!!!!!

Iron shearer???
Don't think he'd have survived too long as a lion shearer!!
Maureen

lesley

The marriage for which you have ordered the cert appears to be the only possible one............

The man's occupation should cross-refer with the birth cert...........

Just for ref:-here's Lesley's other thread.

What are the FULL names of both parents?

What is the father's occupation?

Where and when was the birth registered?

Have you looked for/found any other children of the marriage?

We can't advise - or help - unless you tell us all you know

Frank is Francis just like
Jack is John
Jim is James
Harry is Henry
etc etc

sorry i thought they were married in 1919 6b 1517 but now not so sure please help x
