I have just found out that my gran had a twin brother who died only a few hours old. Aparantly he was named Sam. Date of birth was 16th June 1916 and was born in Dover. Would Sam have been registered if he only lived a few hours?

I would apreciate it if anyone could tell me.

Many thanks

The details came from my grans journal which she wrote 30 years ago, I can't think of any reason as to why she would be wrong about this.

Thanks anyway

My grans name is Lilian her birth was registered in 1919 in the 3rd qtr. She also had a sister Ivy Gertrude who was registered 1913 1st qtr Medway and a brother Richard who was registered 1918 in the 3rd qtr. There were another 6 other sons, one of which was called Ernest but the others I dont know the names. Ernest survived but the other 5 boys died as babies.

You said in your first message that your grans date of birth was in 1916. I have had a look on findmypast.com and found a birth registered JUL/AUG/SEPT 1916 Lilian V Barringer mothers maiden name Dean. Registered in Dover. No other births with the same mothers maiden name and no deaths in that year either
