George CORKE

birth Mar qtr 1886 Yarmouth vol 4b p31 CORKE George mmn ENGLAND
living with parents on 1911 census, single
probable death Mar qtr 1954 Yarmouth vol 4b p554 CORKE George age 68

many possible marriages in England/Wales 1911 to 1936 - if George had a middle name!

could this be George marrying at age 48?
marriage Dec qtr 1934 Yarmouth vol 4b p84 CORKE George T A & SAUNDERS Violet A
birth Mar qtr 1935 Yarmouth vol 4b p18 CORISH(?) mmn SAUNDERS
birth Mar qtr 1936 Yarmouth vol 4b p40 CORKE mmn SAUNDERS
birth Sep qtr 1944 Yarmouth vol 4b p1 CORKE mmn SAUNDERS
birth Sep qtr 1947 Yarmouth vol 4b p880 CORKE mmn SAUNDERS

UPDATE - No it couldn't!
birth Dec qtr 1912 Yarmouth vol 4b p30 CORK George T A mmn DANKS

Marriage June Q 1912 Great Yarmouth 4b 42
George Cork, on same page Madeline H Danks

George (Ada's brother) b. 14 Jan 1886 & Madeline can be found in 1939 Great Yarmouth.  Strangely, in the same household is a married Eugenie R SAUNDERS, b. 1915. 

I have also found George's baptism which confirms this d.o.b, father Charles, mother Eleanor.

Eugenie Riga Corke

Is there a connection between this George CORKE and the family of Ada Harriet CORKE(SHEPHERD)?  I have a horrible feeling it might be a red herring, or connected to Ada from earlier generations which would not lead to finding close cousins of Raymond.

This George Corke (who married Madeline Danks in 1912) is the brother of Ada/Edith/Edie Corke/Shepherd.  He was born 1886 and is on the census records found earlier with Ada and their parents and siblings (post #7 on this thread).  As I mentioned earlier, I have found his baptism record with a d.o.b of 14 Jan 1886 son of Charles & Eleanor Corke, his d.o.b in 1939 when married and living with Madeline is also 14 Jan 1886.  By coincidence his birthday is the same as sister Ada, but different year.

If I am still not making sense please tell me  ;D

No apologies needed Philip, my brain is about to blow too.  I think it's bed time for me (work in the morning).  We'll leave it to crisane to cover the next shift, and check in tomorrow  ;D
