Kay99, is it possible that the Arthur Cuthbert on the birth cert was actually Arthur Denton and did Esther give a false christian name ?? also the Arthur Denton 1939 is lodging with his Aunt (or possible mother?) sister of Arthur John Denton

Rosie99 & Kay99, Arthur Cuthbert is possibly Esther's brother b.1866 to Edward & Elizabeth Cuthbert Bethnal Green as listed on the 1881 Census, the french polishing is an interesting link as that trade follows through the whole Denton line

Esthers brother Arthur J Cuthbert was a Chairmaker or Cabinet maker depending on which census you look at.

I think that the mother Esther got confused when she registered the birth as she was not married to Arthur Denton and therefore used her maiden name as their surname.  If this was the case no idea where the name Beach came from

I also noticed a London School Admissions and Discharges Year Books that mention an Arthur Denton with the same birth date and father Arthur

Arthur Denton
Age    5
Birth Date    28 May 1894
Admission Date    3 Jul 1899
