Why would a persons birth be missing from the 1939 register?
EG: Elizabeth Graham (Green) West Ham CB?

K Report 16 Apr 2017 06:00

Possibly because there was a correction in pencil on the original - in this case the image is 24 May 1861 but above a correction in pencil to 24/5/1867

The transcribers seem to have been stuck on which year to use
