	I think possibly just a mistake on the 1911 census. First son was a Smith and the probably used ditto for the next sons. Births Sep 1909 (>99%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WILLISCROFT Albert Ernest Walsall 6b 764 Births Sep 1910 (>99%) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WILLISCROFT David J Nuneaton 6d 469 Edit: Oops, Prickly Holly beat me to it!
