My family seems to be giving me so many headaches recently......
I havea Reginald William Joseph Gardner, born 14 Jan 1886 in Kincott, Oxon.
To parents William James and Martha.
He moved to Birmingham and married Ada Taylor on 12th Dec 1912.
I ordered what I thought was his death certificate - 12th January 1922.
I have some confusion
On his marriage certificate 10 years previously he was a locomotive engineer, but on the death certificate the occupation is listed as secretary for a drapery company.
The fathers name matches - William Gardner, but lists his address as Bath. As far as I am aware my William never left Oxford.
My gut is telling me this is wrong and to keep looking for another birth.
Any opinions would be welcomed.
