Birth of sister Irene who is on 1939 Register:

Births Jun 1922 (>99%)
Woodhams Irene Smith Ticehurst 2b 168

There are also three closed records with the family in 1939 - at least on Ancestry.

One will be Ivy, born 1932.

There were no other Woodhams/Smith births between 1924 and 1939, so the other two closed records can't be siblings of Frederick.
