parents : Jean Jacques Francois Espie, 31 years old, merchant  and ‘mère inconue’ ?
The child was born in her father’s house, but the father doesn’t know the mother ?
I'm a little confused

you can view the hand written record on here - I may have read these wrong - but they all seem to say - father unknown - need someone a bit more experienced than me to summarise it

Well garstonite the link you give and the link in the quotation show the same thing : Laurence Espie ´s birth certificate which clearly says father JJF Espie and mother unknown. The other births certs of the page don't all say "father unknown ".

It is common sense to understand that the mother who gave birth to Laurence was not unknown at all, but JJF Espié said she was unkown and he was the father . Laurence  was then legaly his child but had no legal link with her biological mother .

FindMyPast has several military records for a Reginald Frank Roll, born Lowestoft. His service record under column headed "Place" mentions "Gallipoli, Mustapha, El Kulisi? and Kashgai?" (Persia/Iran?) - not easy to read.
A second record mentions "Gallipoli, Egypt and Palestine"

Wow! Thanks so much for this! I never expected anyone to find out anything for me!

This is wonderful! I am guessing that is the child that died.

George Henri Dominique is not the child who died , he became a man , married in 1935 in Saint Denis ( unfortunatly the marriage certificates  aren't on line in st Denis ( seine saint denis departement) for 1935.)

[Sally4x]

Yeah I meant Yvon must be the child that died in Cairo. His mother must have died first and the family got it wrong that Reginald brought him back to the U.K. Reginald sailed back to the U.K. in 1926 alone.

My apologies , I misunderstood.
