his not on his birth certificate
that i know off here in gib there is no one else ny grandmother died and took everything with her,my father doesnt remember nearly anything,know if william watson had more kids or married again i dont know but would love too,so im seeing this like a mission impossible,as to get official papers which cost you £30 you need a date of birth or death to get the correct one ,as they wont give money back if they get the wrong william watson,thanks everyone you've a tried what you could and i appreciate that a lot :)
The Enlistment Register might provide more information. In the current situation it's either with the RWF Museum archive in Wrexham or with the RWF Museum library in Bodelwyddan Castle.

still no luck no wonder my father says he will die without knowing,i need a date of birth death date of william watson,if not i cant order for his official papers,somebody must know him or family member if he had kids there might be a possiblitiy there is another watson here ..help
Its quite difficult Ernest, assuming he was born in South Wales, Richard Ward supplied two possibles for you. I've emailed the owner of a family tree on Ancestry, in which a William C Watson of Glamorgan appears. However I've not had a response. I've also messaged a contact at the museum.

At least one of Richards possibles have died:

Thanks Ernest.
Can someone supply Ernests fathers first names and year of birth. Also Williams wifes names.I tried FreeBMD but all variations on Annita/Anuita don't appear for marriages.Also FreeBMD is very busy today so painful searches! Does Ernest know if they married abroad?
Can he supply anything about his grandparents? Perhaps I have missed th original question. Using BMD is a very good way of tracing backwards.
In 1912 the registers started to add the mothers surname to birth records.
There is mention of a sister born about 2 years before or after.What is her first name? I now see that it was his mother-so need her name/s and his fathers year of birth.
The most information to start with would be given by William and Anitas marriage certificate.This should give both their fathers names and occupations and then we can look up again in 1911 census. If any other siblings names are known or the death dates of William and Anita that will give clues.I hope that this helps! I am prepared to do look ups if more info is supplied.
I cannot see how to save this message so that I can search the thread.I highlighted and copied and then pasted back which saved alot of time.
