Is it possible that Thomas's actual dob is the 20th of December 1889 rather than the 2nd. I can find 2 births with the 20th as dob.

Tree on Anc* gives his father as Thomas occ Boilermaker's rivetter, but not much else as proof.

Which may fit with this census 1901

https://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1901/Down/Pottinger/Anderson_Street/1214548/

Also states unverified but sister Mary marries Robert Grey.

Added - As suggested by Heywood..his MC is best way forward.

Think this is possibly the birthdate mentioned by OP it does not match his service number with Hilda as NOK.

Name   T Coghlan
Birth Date   2 Dec 1889
Service Number   1461900
Rank   Army Other Ranks, Discharges for 1939-1971
Additional Regiment   Royal Artillery
Reference Number   ADH001835378

I know nothing of Military, maybe his service number changed or it is not him. Also for discharges post 1939

Added 1939 gives his birth as 2 Dec 1889, I wonder did he rejoin for WW11. That would give a new service number?

Back burner, there's only 1 Thomas Coghlan in Dorset in 1939 with the same dob as originally posted. Could this death whilst age is out be him?
