Might be Alfred Day b 1893, Kent (Deptford?) reg no 3876, Lancers
in WO97
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:V5CK-QLC

If anyone can see that
He is said to have been 5½ years in the 16th Queens Lancers

Religion Roman Catholic
Married to Joanna Spencer 29 January 1918 St Josephs Church, Greenwich
Witnesses Mr William White, Mrs Rosa White
Possibly from the marriage record, Alfred supposed to have been baptized 10 Sep 1894 (but claims to have been born 1894) by Rev R S Shepherd.

When next-of-kin is changed to be wife Joanna, does address remain same or different?

Did they stay in England?......births to find in England for children?

Sorry to hear that Neale, I can't see them either :(

But we can download his CEF papers in pdf form from here (beware, 108 images!)
https://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/military-heritage/first-world-war/personnel-records/Pages/item.aspx?IdNumber=343403

For some reason there is a birth cert in those army papers
Alfred son of Henry Day and Elizabeth Day formerly Rock
Born 28 July 1874 Feckenham
Father a Police Officer
District Alcester in the counties of Warwick and Worcester

Certificate issued from Somerset House, 12 Sep 1933

Perhaps it is in the wrong man's papers!
Sorry.

Parents James DAY (47, dock labourer) and Mary (45) both born Deptford
Children (all born Deptford) Amelia 20, Georgina 17, Henry 13, Mary 11, Alfred 8

Same family in 1891 census but the wife/ mother is named Margaret here.
Other children in this census: Margery 14 and Rose 9

Added; In 1881 census, she is also named Margaret.
