Death of wife [1917]...

As Janette has suggested, the purchase of a birth printout is probably the best way to obtain the information you are seeking.

Decided to order his death printout which arrived today which is very quick. Only ordered it yesterday.

He was born in Cornwall, England, father Martin THOMAS and mother Elizabeth HARVEY.

Will post something on the Cornwall board and see what transpires.

Many thanks.

Thanks Janette, but do not think they would be old enough to be Martin's parents.

Martin Harvey Thomas born about 1834 so the marriage of parents prior to civil registration, so it's back to the Parish Registers ...
