Also showing on FreeBMD with mmn.

I think D of B is just taken as what the informant says.

Have not found a birth record but FindMyPast has a shipbuilding employee record for a Robert Leslie Thompson at Barrow, which seems to confirm the dob, except 18th.

Gadget and AlanBoyd,

thank you I will look at those,

trying to find His date of birth is proving hard,

such a common name .

as far as I know He died in 2004 .

Freebmd has different surname but same reg. Looks like the E was changed or mistranscribed.

Any sign of him on the 1939?

[AlanBoyd]

I also found the R L Slater birth. I can’t see any obvious hits for him in 1939 or a death.
