  • A solid brickwall no chinks etc help needed please

    Hi

    My great great grandmother Eliza Ann Dodd married a Walter Herbert Cooke in 1900 (she was still married to Henry Saich at the time) however she passed away in 1937 and after many hours and years I have found her death registered and it is her as she passed away same house as in 1911 census.

    I am, however, stuck with tracing the death of Walter Herbert Cooke, born 1868 St Brides, Middx. Ive found two possible registrations but after sending off for certificates they are incorrect. One in 1943 as it states son informant and he did not have any. Second one in 1951 completely wrong as that is just Herbert Cooke.

    I also sent off for a birth certificate Walter Herbert Cooke b 27 Sept 1868 but this might be wrong as it states father as John George Cooke and his father was John Henry Cooke.

    Im so confused, hopefully someone might be able to point me in right direction.

    Kind regards and ever hopeful

                looks like the son they are talking about is this one

                    I see Albert's living with Walter and Eliza in 1911, but his relationship to them isn't stated.
