Just to help us to help you;

Do you know where William was born?
Does he have any middle initial?
Is Gilbert his mother's maiden name?
Did William marry Nellie Mummery, do you know when and where?

Sorry to bombard you with questions but it might help narrow down the search.

Edit: Sorry I missed the middle initial in the first post,

Check out Gillian's previous thread about this man.............to save duplication of effort

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.asp?wci=thread&tk=1142109

He probably wasn't born until around 1910-ish...............

Gillian

You can't hope to make accurate progress without buying the marriage cert..................at the moment, you have no idea of his age, or his father's name, or what name was represented by the 'C'

Thanks Ricochet,

Okay so William Good married Nellie in 1932 when she was 21. Unlikely he was born 1866 unless he arried in his 70's.

This is the birth you refer to

Births Mar 1912
Good William C Gilbert Lambeth 1d 568

I think you have to get Nellie'a marriage certificate to confirm who William's father was are before you go any further.

Best of luck
