Do you mean that this isn’t your William and Charles?
What evidence do you have that they were born or came from Sheppey?

Do you know what William's peacetime occupation was before joining up?

the Oxford chap appears to have married in 1948 in Merioneth, so he has moved around a bit and could be in Sheerness in he early years of the war, meeting his wife there?

Are the witnesses to the 1943 marriage any help?
