supercrutch Report 10 Dec 2019 16:33

Birth record states:
Florence Selena Coldham b Jun 1900 Forehoe

On the 1939 register name:
Florence Pocock b. 06 Jun 1901

Florence Coldham married Stanley Thomas Pocock Q3 1922 which is the chap I am working on.

I cannot find a family that fit in with the first date.

The image for the 1900 birth appears to have a twin for her Robert Henry

Are the odds that she got her DOB wrong on the 1939?

I won't be ignoring replies but I'll be back later.

Thanks

Sue
