I have the 1939 Register birth date of 1878, but it doesn’t tally exactly with his age in the 1911 census or his marriage certificate, or his age in the death index.... so as I mentioned earlier, I need to search between 1878 and 1881. Which is fine, but I need the town, parish or voivodeship in Poland.

To serve in the British Armed Forces during WW1, I would have thought, He would have had to obtain British Nationality at some point in time. National Archives have some Records Online, describing those Foreign Nationals, who Registered for British Nationality. I guessing it would have been a similar scenario for His Wife.

I’m waiting on his death certificate in the hope it may say more than Poland as his place of birth.

A 1940 death certificate will not show a place of birth.

Does anybody know the series name in the National Archives for British Naturalization, Citizenship or Alien records..?
