I'm getting very confused, have got the naval records of someone it says he was born in St George's Warwickshire but on the 1881 census I have him on one of his ships and it says born St George's Middlesex ???

I don't know, Val, but if there was a St George's Warwickshire I would imagine it would be a parish church in the city of Birmingham, so you could look at lists of Birmingham churches to find out...KiteRunner

1871 possibles, births in Middlsex or Warwicks
James Slater abt 1865 Paddington, Middlesex, Son Willesden, Middlesex
James T Slater abt 1864 W Bromwich, Staffordshire, Son West Bromwich, Staffordshire
neither seem likely to fit with 1881~ with love from Little Nell~Chowns, Dunt, Emms, Mealing, Purvey & Smoothy

Originally posted by Little Nell View PostI think it most likely to be St George in the East, which is in the East End of London. It was a registration district and was replaced by Stepney. St George in the East is a Hawksmoor church.

I always thought this mans Son came from Birmingham as I have letters to him from his Fathers family there , I do know his parents died before he married not sure yet when but the father was according to the marriage cert dead in 1933 .
I am going to write all this info down and see what I come up with
Thank you all so much
This mans son Reginald ,has been a thorn in our side for years as when his wife died all the estate should have gone to him but he could not be found, so we have often wondered where he came from.
Its quite clear on the naval records St George's Warwckshire, but its definitely him on the 1881 census coming from Middlesex as I have his medals and he did serve on the Inconstant at that time

no sorry he left his wife around 1947 and never came back he was supposed to have gone to Canada he would have inherited everything .
I had already got a birth cert for a Reginald Slater born 1915 which was the wrong one , am now looking in the year 1910 as he did say that he was born in either 1910 or 1915 ?????
He was brought up by an Aunt and uncle so must have been young when his parents died , I did find two deaths for James Slater one in 1910 which is the year Reg was supposed to be born and another in 1912 both in Warwickshire.
