Now this IS really intriguing. My grandfather HAROLD had a younger brother who appears to have been born in Manhattan, New York on September 11th 1907 and baptised there later that month. I am almost certain that he soon returned to Birmingham and lived in Oxford Street, Stirchley, with his mother MARTHA and father GEORGE HENRY as well as brother HAROLD. There are so many questions that remain unanswered; why would his pregnant mother undertake such a journey? why return so quickly? how could this be afforded by a working class family? etc etc.
Any help to unravel the mystery of my dad's Uncle Bill gratefully anticipated.
