I can't see one either, it looks as if she didn't register his birth doesn't it? I see the baptism was private, which usually means that the baby wasn't expected to live, so perhaps he only lived a few hours and she thought as he was baptised she didn't need to register his birth, just his death.

I can see a death registered, but I don't think that a death cert would show anything other thyan Elizabeth as person reporting death and the cause.

I have ordered what I believe is Elizabeth's death cert in Jan - Mar 1936 Surrey North Western 2a 491. Having checked back on 1911 census, that shows that she had had 6 children, 3 living, 3 had died.  I know the 3 children living at the time of the 1911 census; Reginald Albert Fisher, May Rosetta Alexandra Fisher and Jessie Irene Fisher (who died a few months after the census).

I haven't traced any of the 3 that had died prior to 1911 census, so the Harry that was found earlier looks an even likelier candidate to be her son and that that Elizabeth Herrington is her.
