I suppose the parish records for Rugby in 1919 would be in Warks and not Northants?

I suppose the parish records for Rugby in 1919 would be in Warks and not Northants?

But it looks like Rugby in his military records are incorrect as only one person exists - who was b in Daventry, then moved to Rugby?

Incidentally doing research over last 3-4 years I've seen many references to folk our on that border of Daventry district registering their children births in Rugby just to confuse things.

Note I'm onto a Frost hero too.

Hi Carol, Phil and southistle.

The Registration District sure covered some of our Parishes whose
Parish Records are in our Northants Record Office.

http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/rugby.html

Rugby Library hold a few P.R. for Northants.

Ah so looking up that 1919 marriage in the parish records isn't going to be straightforward  ::)

Oh well......
