The text of William J P's Birth Certificate has been contributed by Philip Crimes, giving his full name. In fact, William Joseph used the surname PEGG The death record, in the name PEGG, gives the exact date of birth consistent with the births index. William Joseph married, and after his death in 2002 his widow re-married, to P Hitchcock who has contributed to this research. William Joseph may have been resident with his aunt Gwendoline in 1939 as a deliberate plan to "get him out of London because of the WW2. From the information on The 1939 Register it seems that he went quite early. However this corresponds with [family] information that William Joseph knew his aunt in his early years more than his mother who remained in London." |
