I've just thought, could the Robert Crouch who is on the 1928 electoral roll actually be a mistranscription of Herbert Crouch?

Does anyone know where Dartmouth Road was in Canning Town?
It existed until at least 1931 as my grandad's aunt lived at 40 Dartmouth Road at the time of her death

I've just found this marriage registration which could be Carrie's:
Marriages Sep 1926
Cox Carrie E E Groves W.Ham 4a 537
Might have to get the certificate to see if that's her.

The Alfred Robert that we have been discussing was a cousin of my grandfather despite being born 31 years earlier.
His father was Henry Robert David who died in 1900, Henry's wife remarried later in 1900 to John Walter Cox and they are found on the 1911 census with Alfred's sister Lily Harriet & half sister 'Carrie' Cox.
I'm not sure what Carrie's real name is as there's a few candidates born around 1901.
This is the family in 1901 without 'Carrie':
John Cox 33
Harriet Cox 35
Alfred Crouch 13
Lily Crouch 9

The original list states:
Crouch, Alfred R 60 W.Ham 5a 572
Crouch, Arthur R 68 Essex S.W. 5a 99
I think whoever put the entry on Ancestry mixed the two up as there is no death registration for a 60 year old Arthur R Crouch in West Ham in 1948.

That's a great shout, Carol!
I can't find him in 1911 so am guessing that he was either in the armed forces or was hiding!
P.S. I've just found this entry on Ancestry which could be the same person:
Name: Arthur R Crouch
Death: West Ham, Essex, England
Death: Oct-Nov-Dec 1948
Volume: 5a
Page: 572
The original says "Alfred R.....60" and there is an Arthur R on the next line who was 68, it appears that Ancestry got mixed up.

I thought I'd found Alfred Robert's death but have miscalculated his age as there is a registration in Eastbourne in 1923 but the age is 45 which is 10 years older than Alfred would have been.
