I cannot see a death for Sheila's son so must be careful here, but there are two birth registrations for someone of his name (including initial) born Newcastle Q1 1953. One has mmn Colman and the other has Henderson. Could this be the same birth registered twice?

Following on from that, for what it's worth, there are two Sheila M Henderson births registered in Newcastle, 1931 and 1934.

Sheila Mary Minnikin's death registration gives her birth year as 1930. There is an Army birth registration, Sheila Colman, 1930, Alexandria. No middle initial, no mother’s maiden name.

Alan I to was looking at Sheila being born away from the north East, if her Dad was in the Army, and parents registered in Catterick from 1930, her parents may have been overseas prior to this,

Radcliff, it was your Catterick post that alerted me to the possible significance of the birth in Alexandria.

Presumably members of the armed forces were not included in the 1939 register, but what about their families living in barracks – were they also excluded?

I think the children may have perhaps been evacuated at this point ,
