The Common Room / Missing Birth for James Park 1893/4
« on: Tuesday 16 January 24 15:05 GMT (UK)  »
Although this Baptism implies he was born 2 January 1894 as James Park Park that agrees 1911 Census
But there is no Trace of his Birth
When he Enlisted 2 November 1914 he stated aged 21 not 20 and only as James Park
When he Married in August 1924 to Annie Preston he stated he was 31 not 30 and only as James Park
I am of the Opinion that those on 1911 Census that had brought him up from Birth as their Son but my Opinion is that he was born out of wedlock of a Relative that was taken in as Son and again with Thomas on 1911 Census born 1902 but no Birth Registration?

World War One / WW1 Medals number issued ?
« on: Wednesday 27 December 23 14:16 GMT (UK)  »
Pte Moses Board

His 1914/15 Star was issued under 1869

I have assumed his British War Medal and Victory were issued under his
 new 1917 number and final number 225509

But someone claims all 3 were under 1869 so I am puzzled

Any Opinions?
