I know this is a huge ask but I'm really stuck here and the Registry Office couldn't find it either.
George Phillips and his wife Emily Thomas had 11 children.
Alfred born in Oct 1903, Stockton and died in Oct 1904, Stockton. We have his proof of death but no burial, I picked up the Burial Certificate of his siblings yesterday and because I wasn't sure of WHICH children were in the grave I'd mentioned all 6 that we had found so the Registrar did a little search in their burial registers for Alfred but he couldn't be found. Does anyone have any idea as to what could have happened?
Another curious note is that Harry Phillips & Hannah Phillips (George's Mum & Brother) cannot be found in a grave either.
For those that helped me find them I also thought you might like to know the details that were on the Burial Certificate:
Granddad was born on the 7th August 1921, we are praying that it's the same house.
