William Charles Lobeck

[JenB]

I'm sorry everyone, I have records for William Charles from his birth, 1911 census, residences , marriage , admission to the asylum.

It's impossible that his name was mistakenly entered incorrectly over 4 decades.

I don't think anyone has suggested that his name has been incorrectly recorded over four decades.
What has been suggested is that his name, for whatever reason, has been incorrectly entered on his death certificate.

It appears that GRO does not have a  death record for William Ernest Lobeck born 21/7/1910

Have you tried to order it using the details provided? 

[rosie99]

The searchable index has gaps in it for both birth and death records, it starts again in 1983 so you will have to put the details in yourself.  I always double check the information before ordering in that circumstance by looking at the image of the register which you can view on freebmd by selecting the spectacle image alongside the transcription and then downloading the image

The GRO does have a death record for that William Ernest Lobeck. But as rosie has explained there are gaps in the searchable online GRO index.

You will have to enter the necessary details yourself on the GRO order page https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/app_ew_death_quoted.asp?APPLICATION_ID=5T6E7381A7I282E6246ESI44DHXQBAHE73H

Here is the death as indexed on the volunteer transcription page freeBMD

In the absence of any other possible, I too would take a punt on ordering that certificate
You have his d.o.b.
I searched FreeBMD for deaths ,
surname Lobeck
first name William
left the middle name blank
Death age/dob @1909-1911
and this William Ernest, with the 'exact' birth date you are looking for is the only one to come up from 1938 onwards

NB I also tried the same search with wild cards in the surname as LO*ECK , based on the fact  the father completed the form and signed with the surname  LOWEBECK for everyone,  on the 1921 census Still only this one result

 I've seen so many discrepancies on death certs with age, names etc I would hestitate to discount the one possible entry until I saw what is on the cert.

Thanks Boo,

If you do go ahead and get the details of the death cert, would you mind letting us know if it confirms or discounts it being your man?
Not a case of anyone here wanting to be proved right or wrong, more that it would help us to learn a bit more and satisfy (especially in my case) our curiosity :-)
