A tree on Ancestry has him born on 24th July 1906 to George W Green, b 1875, and Elizabeth Matthews, 1891-1980.

George William Green born Q1 1875 in Gainsborough mmn Bean. Sibling also mmn Bean.

Son of John Green and Mary, but no marriage found.

The tree has the Mathews family going back to 1594.

Hi all sorry its me again. I have pieced together everything above and its looking good, but i am now stuck again on the father, George Frederick Green born (c) 1885 who was married to Elizabeth Matthewson. His birth is recorded on the 1939 register as 22 July 1889 living in Gainsborough, and born in Worksop according to the 1911 census. However there are 3 births in Worksop and none of them match the birthdate on the 1939 register. I doesnt help that they are no where to be seen in 1921 and there is no marriage for him and Elizabeth, the death for George F Green in 1948 Gainsborough puts his age at 63 so that would be 1885 ish if its correct, any ideas on what to do next please as i am fast running out x

This find a grave has him age 65 on death in 1948

https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/278527663/charles-mathewson

Must be him as buried with father in law Charles. Checked plot number and both are named.  If you look at original it looks died aged 65  (bc 1883)

Added - death info only as good as informant knowledge

Hi thanks for replying, i have just got the digital copy of this certificate and it is correct, the first age of 73 has been crossed out on the actual certificate and replaced with age 63 so making his birth around 1885ish x

Have you looked into the possibility concerning reply #12 by DCB to help rule in/out.

There was a possible son John born to couple that maybe one of the 2 children that died.
