H I believe that William Henry possibly married twice, firstly to a Violet H McCallum Dec qtr 1920 Lymington 2b 1665, Violet H White dies June qtr 1927 Bournemouth 2b 801 aged 27 he then marries an Elsie M Clayton Dec qtr 1929 Bournemouth 2b 1735

Their is a birth Sept qtr 1926 White/MCCULLUM which could be one of your required children?
Their is a birth Dec qtr 1940 White/Clayton which could be one of your required children?

Have you looked for a marriage for William, to see who Theo and David's Mother was, to get more accurate dates of birth?

Have you applied for William's death certificate for the informant details?

With possible births in 1926 and 1940, these men could both be still alive.

Are you sure they are both sons?

Think Theo is Theodora, and is showing on ER's up to at least 2012, under married name.

Could you also say where you got those birth and death dates and places, as I cannot see them on ancestry or free bmd.
If he was not born in Bournemouth, then the marriage(s) could be anywhere.  So they could both be sons.

Added:
Knew something was wrong for me.

Is the Father Wright, and the sons White?

I keep doing the wrong searches.

Also, how can the sons be White?

Thank-you

WHITE ?  So where does Wright come from?

William Henry White  birth 10th April 1896, death Bournemouth Dorset Dec quarter 1977

However, these are more likely births so not Bournemouth?

Births June quarter 1896
 William Henry White       Basingstoke
William Henry White         Portsea

firstly, thanks very much for the help.

it is definitely William Henry White born Apr 10 1896 in Bournemouth.

I managed to find the details for Theodora Thelma Thorn (married name) but she unfortunately died in 2011 in Bournemouth.  (good shout on not being a male - I will need to check where this came from)

I will also have a look at marriage and death records further.
