hi thanks very much i have managed to find them and now just trying to locate Williams death and the children's births my grandfather is adamant they had more children between them then i have found

There's a death for a William Rogers aged 32 1920 in Wycombe, Bucks vol 3a page 974. Not sure how you establish if this is your William without purchasing the death certificate and hoping the informant is his wife Ada.

Have you tried looking in the local paper from the time to see if there is a death notice - 32 is a young death so there might have been an obituary?

No i haven't but i will give that a try thanks again
