You have quoted the DOBs given in 1939, which gives the wrong YEARS - but the days and months seem correct, as is often the case with the 1939 Register..


Births:

CHORLEY, EUGENIA mmn CHATER
GRO Reference: 1884 S Quarter in ASTON Volume 06D Page 301

PADDOCK, HARRY mmn SMITH
GRO Reference: 1889 D Quarter in BIRMINGHAM Volume 06D Page 34

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

Ages in 1921 are opposite way round

At the same address as 1915

He is a manager outdoor licence, working for Mitchell & Butler

Also at the address, brothers-in-law Edwin and Harold Chorley, and wife’s uncle Godfrey Chater

Eugenie’s surname when marrying was CHORLEY….no reference anywhere that I can see to the name ABEL

Harry and Euginie Paddock.
Harry was born 30/10/1884 Birmingham
Euginie Abel was born 24/08/1889

They married 01/09/1912 in Sparkbrook, Birmingham.
1915 they were living at 85 Hingeston Street, Birmingham

I have them on all the census except 1921.

Harry died 1957

Please can someone see if they can find them on the 1921 census.

All the best

Jane
