SteveE Posted 22 August , 2008 Share Posted 22 August , 2008 Dan Checking the BMD's I can't see any obvious birth registration for a Patrick William DIVINE but there is a possibility for a DEVINE... Name: Patrick William Devine Year of Registration: 1880 Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep District: Salford County: Greater Manchester, Lancashire Volume: 8d Page: 20 I guess this could well be the Lancashire Fusilier.

SteveE Posted 22 August , 2008 Share Posted 22 August , 2008 Dan Just out of interest, this may be his son's birth recorded in 1917 and death in 1987, note the spellings... Name: Patrick W Divine Year of Registration: 1917 Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar Mother's Maiden Name: Kennedy District: Rochdale County: Greater Manchester, Lancashire Volume: 8e Page: 68 Name: Patrick William Devine Birth Date: 17 Jan 1917 Death Registration Month/Year: Mar 1987 Age at death (estimated): 70 Registration district: Rochdale Inferred County: Lancashire Volume: 39 Page: 521 Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest KevinEndon Posted 22 August , 2008 Share Posted 22 August , 2008 You were looking for Devine and not Divine, youve still got it Dan, but for the sake of the country don't share it. K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
