Am really new to genealogy, but am getting quite addicted :-) If its not too much to ask, I would like help getting info on my Mothers side. (Oates/Parkes)
My Grandfather - Garfield Oates, Born 07 mar 1910 Died 01 mar 1968
My G Grandfather - Jack Oates Born ?? (stone mason)
My Grandmother - Alice Parkes Born Around 1912
My G Grandfather - Isaich Parkes Born ?? (iron worker)
They were married in Birmingham on 19/11/1931. I think my Granfather (Oates) was born in Cornwall.
There is a birth registration for Garfield Oates on freeBMD
Births Mar 1910
OATES Garfield
Penzance volume 5c page 21?? (page number needs to be checked against images)
This seems to tie in with the date of birth you have got.
The 1911 census shows that the following Oates family can be found in one household:
OATES JOHN c1874
OATES MINNIE c1875
OATES BEATRICE MAY c1896
OATES SIDNEY c1907
OATES THOMAS JOHN c1897
OATES GARFIELD M c1910
