So if that is correct, it still doesn't solve the problem of Alfred Laurence/ Walter Lawrence.  ::)

The 1937 newspaper reports about the sudden death of Alfred Douce, Caulfield Rd, Shoeburyness give his occupation as Railway Guard.
Have you checked the 1911 Census for Walter Laurence Douce and occupation?

STANLEY LAWRENCE DOUCE was born at 3 Bailey Road,Leigh although his mother was resident at 20 Friar Street, Shoeburyness?
Also born 17 Oct 1907 and birth not registered until 29 Nov?
Anything unusual there?
