[heywood]

Sorry re above I quoted some wrong information.

This is now the right stuff 

Re Douglas Arthur, the soldier from my earlier post.

Became Army Reserve 1932 - had signed on for 9 yrs. discharged 14.11.35

Brother Edward - 2nd Battalion Royal Engineers

Then in the box re Campaign medals etc there are some codes and 1942 is mentioned.

Thanks Heywood, I'm adding that all to the records I have. I do believe the two people to be the same person now, just without a birth certificate and changed his birthday to seem older than his wife. The DNA links the two people, so I am sure it is right.

My next goal for my tree will be to find the death dates of his parents,

Do you have them in 1939 register?

There is this marriage

Arthur H Brazier and Emma Wright 1929, Edmonton.

There are people of this name on the 1939 register but don’t know if it is them.

[heywood]

There are these births
Daisy F Brazier 1917 mmn Farr.
Daisy F Brazier 1922 mmn Farr.
These births, of course, are several years before that marriage.
 
1939 shows a 1917 birth so it seems a bit odd.

How did we make the jump to the Braziers? I am a bit lost

[heywood]

Marriage as given already 1929

Electoral registers (a few)

1935 - 1939
24 Shore Road Hackney
Arthur Henry Brazier
Emma Brazier
Daisy Florence Brazier

Births of Daisy F with mmn Farr - already given but am puzzled by two births but no death of first child.

You then need to check 1939 register which has dates of birth to compare Emma’s birthdate.

Well, if Emma WRIGHT who married Arthur BRAZIER IS Emma FARR widow (we presume?) of William WRIGHT, then she would have been 51 at the birth of the 1922  Daisy Florence, which while not unheard of is pretty good going.
The ages DO fit.

Added, although it would appear it is the 1917 one that survived. Perhaps the 1922 registration is a Re-registration for some reason.

Added this note is  on freebmd

.Births Jun 1922
Brazier   Daisy F.   Farr   Hackney      1b   678   MissMarple   
The above transcription represents what is in the GRO index but it is referred to by the following entry
Births 1917 Jun: Brazier,Daisy,Farr,Hackney,1b,see j22
which implies that this is a late entry, that is an entry that has been registered in a quarter later than the event. See here for more information on late entries. 

Added.  Maybe they had to register her when she started school.

So my suspicions say William (if your William) was not deceased before 1917.  But before 1929

There is this death

Deaths Sep 1924   (>99%)
Wright    William    64    Hackney    1b   366

[mckha489]

Deaths Mar 1947   (>99%)
Brazier    Emma    75    Hackney    5c   1051


Daisy Florence Brazier b 20 Mar 1917 d 2006 Milton Keynes

This is all perfect, I am ordering all of these certificates.
