Why do you think he is your cousin? When and where was your cousin born, who were his parents?
Is there a relationship for Betty to James on the cert?

Gillian - the best thing is to tell us how you got to James and Betty in the first place, then we can pin things down a bit easier.

James Will WILLS m Betty J Bates Jun Q 1948 London Southwark
?
Betty J Bates b Dec Qtr 1929 London Southwark 1d 95

??
Betty Jean Wills d July 1992 Plymouth Devon DoB 4.8.1929 - a bit early for a Dec Qtr birth Registration, but not impossible. And a bit of a distance from their usual stomping grounds. This is the only one showing up to 2006. Has she definitely died?
