Cole & Stacey family from Alton, Hampshire

[Oneday]

I'm trying to establish the correct parents for Elizabeth Cole  born 1912 and her brother Thomas Cole born 1914 in Alton, Hampshire.

It also appears they have a sibling Esther - this is not confirmed.  Her birth differs between 1900 & about 1908 unless an initial Esther was born & died and the next child was also called Esther.

I'm choosing between Thomas Cole & Florence E Stacey or Albert Cole & Eliza Stacey.  I can't quite find enough information to rule one or the other out.  It also may turn out not to be either of these couples.

Any suggestions to help clarify which set of parents is correct would be appreciated.

Is this their births
Thomas A Cole 1914 Alton Hampshire mothers maiden name Stacey
Elizabeth E Cole 1912 Alton Hampshire mothers maiden name Stacey

A tree on Ancestry has the parents as Albert Cole and Eliza Stacey

You mentioned a sibling Esther you will find them on the 1911 census in Alton Hampshire

Would getting a copy of their birth certificate not give you the parents names

I'm not sure if that tree is correct as I found another Cole/Stacey marriage in Alton, Hampshire in approx 1910. 

I've been browsing both families & can't make a lot of headway.

I would get a copy of the birth certificate then for one of them and see what it says

Once again,  This information hasn't told me anything new.  I'm trying to find out more about either set of parents (or perhaps a new set) as their information should be readily available through various sources without getting a copy of the children's certificate's.  The two sets of parents at this point are:  Thomas Cole & Florence E Stacey or Albert Cole & Eliza Stacey.  I cannot find a record of marriages for either of these couples. 

I have had someone advise that a Florence Ethel married a different surname & there is a mention of a Thomas Cole but no marriage.  From this it looks like I'm now focusing on Albert Cole & Eliza Stacey & finding their marriage record prior to the birth of the children.  I haven't found it yet to date.

Until the next census is released there is no way of knowing which parents they belong to without buying a birth certificate unless they are still resident with their parents in 1939.
