Could be either of these, do you have his mother's maiden name as that would tell you which one?

Births Mar 1925 
Harris    William K    Clark    Hartley W    2c   348   
   
Births Dec 1925   
Harris    William J    Neville    Hartley W  2c   342

As you've put this in Graveyards and Gravestones are you looking for his death or information about him after 1925?

hi thankyou for looking my nan, we think was his mom and her name was ellen harris (nellie)but her mothers maiden name was neville,and boy was brought up by rose harris nee neville as was my nans daughter nan aka muriel ivy,so im thinking it is the william j and maybe her mom was on the birth certificate,because we was always led to believe boy and nan were my moms uncle and aunt not half brother and sister,boy disappeared years ago and could even be alive,but no one has ever seen him since going to feltham,i am very sure it is the one with neville on thankyou so much

Have you got a rough date when he was last heard of, as that could help find a death?

my moms cousin got married in the late 60s and he came to the wedding because thats the only photo i have got,im thinking the last time around bramshill would be early 70s at a party in hazeley heath,he also lived in heckfield but the last was when an uncle dropped him at reading station to go to feltham and stay with my moms aunt luisa monks and her family , the uncle has just died and wouldnt say much but i think he was asking for his birth certificate and there was an argument , he couldnt read or write but good with cars thankyou

Members of the public do not have access to death certs.  Also - English death certs do not show mothers maiden name or deceased persons birthplace

went by name boy harris

Who and when did he marry - when was their last child born?  When was he last known to be alive?

What does the J stand for?

thankyou carol we are not sure if he married or had children and when i ask family no one seems to of seen him since the 70s also the j we think is john because he was only known as boy all his life, most of the family didnt ever know him as anything else and my nan has died a long time ago,everyone said they thought it was john boy,but william was my nans eldest brother so we are sure it was william john,we alway thought he was my nans brother not son as we now know
