Can't think what else to do with this family - the only birth that seems to be correct is Richard W (Junior) the rest just don't really appear.

Hi Debbie

Isle of Wight site is a good site - don't bother getting the cert as mothers maiden name is wrong

Name = COOLEY, James Year = 1887

Name Birth
Year Other Surname(s) District Reference
1 COOLEY, James 1887 MEANING Newport N41/E178
