Can you clarify what you mean with the names please? Also can you give a more precise place of birth as Humberside did not exist in 1908

Is he registered at birth as Wood(s) or Fincham?

Just to clarify, the Fincham/Woods marriage was in Mar qtr 1917, Grimsby.
1911 looks to be parents born in Harwich, residing in Grimsby, claimed to be married for 10 years, 6 children born to the marriage and 4 still alive.?http://www.flickr.com/photos/50125734@N06/

Just popping this 1901 return up for a John Fincham, totally different place of birth at Gainsborough (not that far from Grimsby) and resident in Hull just over the river from Grimsby.
I can sort of understand Harwich to Grimsby as both are coastal, I wonder if he/they were hiding something in the 1911 as John doesn't even fill his forename in fully.

There doesn't appear to be a birth reg for the name born in Harwich or Gainsborough save for an 1859 birth in the Tendring district
This appears to be the death reg though
