Hi Cas
That's good, thank you. So we do have a matching birth date with the 1939 Register entry.
And a birth certificate with the names John Edward not John Henry, and Jaques rather than Jacques.
It would certainly make it difficult to find.
Or it could be a different person! Hopefully something for bluetntmo to investigate.
John

John born 15.10 .1891

That's from the 1939 Register

On his death cert it states date & place of birth 24th October 1890, Wakefield Yorks

Is it Wakefield because of the gentleman farmer's son certificate, or did Colin believe that his father was born there? :-\

Throwing this one into the mix. I do not have access to ancestry images at the moment  :( so I am hoping the date of birth is right!
Baptism at Wakefield St Mary, 3 November 1891
John Edward Jakes
Born 15 October 1891
Parents Frederick + Elizabeth

It's on FamilySearch, but minus the birthdate
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:N13Z-DMR

Frederick and Elizabeth as a couple are hard to find!
Registerd as Jaques, the GRO birth index has it as what looks like an illegitimate birth
JAQUES, JOHN  EDWARD 
Mother's Maiden Surname: —
GRO Reference: 1891  D Quarter in WAKEFIELD  Volume 09C  Page 37

And Yorkshire BMD says (NONE) for mother's maiden name
https://www.yorkshirebmd.org.uk/birthsearch.php

Is there any further sign of John Edward?
Could he have reemerged later as John Henry Jacques, and made up his father name (also John) on his marriage (or perhaps used a step or adoptive father's name)

A wildcard, death

Another one, without a "c" in the surname
June 1957 Portsmouth 6b 376
Jaques, John Henry
Age 67

Not sure who it might be, but it is certainly not the Co-op man in the Portsmouth newspapers!

ADDED.
Instant digital image available from the GRO for only £2.50, if you fancy taking a punt!

Sussex / Re: Hale family (shoemakers) - who were the parents of Mary born Brighton 1838?
« on: Friday 19 April 24 23:17 BST (UK)  »
Hi there
The infamous Alfred Cullmer sounds interesting! Certainly Mary was having a rough time later, with those workhouse admissions. Though the 4 March 1868 discharge from the Holborn workhouse says that Mary was taken out by Husband. Children Rosina and Alfred were with her.
I do think you have found the right Mary, her father's details on her marriage tally.

I believe it says Williams as father's name on those Hale Brighton baptisms in 1838. Which is curious, as it is said to be Sarah/Susan's maiden name. But I can't find any BTs of baptisms in Brighton for 1838 for comparison.
As a family, even with William as father, there is not really any further sign.

What we do know is that Susan and the children ended up later in the City of London. But were they there with Joseph as early as 1843?
