morning all wonder if you lovely people can help ...

I have come across a baptism for a brother of my grandfather ..( with the same name ) but the only death i can find Doesnt match ..wonder if you wonderful people can stop me pulling my hair out !!!!

so this is what i have found .. bap of john fisher born 2-10-1900 bap 17-10-1900 son of john and sarah ( thompson ) etterick place sunderland

He must have died before 1911 as my grandfather john was born 13 -11-1911

the only death i can find is a John Thomas Fisher ( son of john ) age 7 months but the burial is 4 -10-1900 ..so this cant be him !!!

can anyone help please ...

Can you post the parent's 1911 census, please? That should say how many children were born to the marriage, and how many have died.
