no birth reg showing on GRO website for John or William born 1841. There is a birth reg for
Joseph Boase dec qtr 1842 Falmouth vol 9 pg 83 mmn Broadley, baptism for Joseph 4 Jan 1843 in the Wesleyan Methodist church in Falmouth, son of John & Betsy date of birth noted as 3 Dec 1842.
It's not surprising for there to be no birth registration in the early period of civil registration.
