There is this death registered for William Lee -
Name: LEE, William Registration District: Durham Eastern County: Durham Year of Registration: 1946 Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar Age at death: 69 Volume No: 10A Page No: 570
I can't find a death for John Wiliam Linge in 1946. Sorry.
EDIT - Could this be John's death (registered as just William) -
Name: LINGE, William Registration District: Durham Eastern County: Durham Year of Registration: 1946 Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar Age at death: 69 Volume No: 10A Page No: 570
If the double birth entry you mean is the one for John William Linge then I think that it is just a mistake by the person who was filling out the records to send to the GRO. The page numbers are not the same but consecutive numbers so the name was probably at the bottom of a page and the transcriber has written it out again at the top of the next page. Just my opinion though so I may be wrong.

Hiya All.
I wonder if any kind person with access to death records could find the Vol. and page/folio numbers for the following, please?
John William Linge, b c1876, Staindrop died age c69, Durham East district in1946;
(Ernest) William Lee, b c1876, probably Evenwood died age c69, Durham East district in 1946. (Death probably registered as William Lee.)
Also, does anyone know why a birth would be entered twice in the Free Birth Index, ie, the same names, same district, same quarter, same Vol number and consecutive page/folio numbers.
Could this be twins, with the first one dying upon birth and the second child being given the same Christian/Fore names?
Any help would possibly solve a family mystery.
Many thanks, in anticipation,
Joyce
