    Help I am having a crisis

    Charles Whittenbury Marsh married Ida Agnes Caflisch Camberwell, 1905

    Henry Whittenbury Marsh born 06 Sept 1906 (died 1987) Camberwell

    Henry had a brother John (only thing I know)

    I have found a birth reg for John Charles Marsh in Camberwell in 2nd qtr 1906.

    would it be possible for a woman to have 2 births so close together?

    I am hoping John Charles was born Middle of Febuary, but not registered until April (clutching at straws), and that Henry was born prem....... 7 months.

    I don't want to order the cert unless I really have to (not my direct line)

    Sounds pretty unlikely to me, Vikki. Could John have been born before the marriage and then reregistered after? Though I can't see his birth under Caflisch, but I bet there are a few variations on that surname!

      I did think it was unlikely, but was kinda hoping

      I did find the sister Hilda, but she died a short while later.

      Oh Well, I just wish I could find the fathers birth so I can order the certificate.

        Couldn't John Charles have been born in June?

          More then likely but it would mean that he could not be the brother of Henry, which I was hoping he was, but it looks like I will be going back to the drawing board

            Sorry, misread the year of Henry's birth!!! Thought it was 1905.

              There's a Jack in 1909

              I think the seven months theory is pushing it a bit, especially as the prem baby lived to adulthood. My step-dau has two children nine months apart, but the second one was born at 6½ months - most womed don't get pregnant again for at least a few weeks after giving birth!!

              More than likely they moved out of Camberwell for a year or two!
