These are the birth to which you refer, presumably.

The marriage shows the initial of the third forename...........not sure why you're in doubt

To find if it's the right marriage, purchase the cert for father's info etc

To check if the parents were war casualties look for them on the CWGC site.................

Born 1899 Fulham

Mother Lily M M Burrows died 1943
Father Henry Burrows died 1943

Wonder if they were war casualties? That's not what I want to know though. What happened to Robert? I thought I had a marriage for him but I think it may be another Robert H Burrows born Wandsworth 1899. Gertrude Blacker is the name I'm looking at. Can anyone confirm or otherwise? Thanks :-)
