Any other info
Thomas Cummings is recorded on Tipton Remembers site because he is commemorated on the St. John's Memorial, put there by his wife Mabel. It seems that his only Tipton connection is that by 1919 his wife had re-married and moved to Tipton. Thomas was born in Birmingham and was living there in 1911, although may have been living in Falkirk in 1914.

By 1919 his widow Mabel had re-married now Fletcher. With Thomas's 2 children Samuel and James, she was living at 42 Lorne Street, Princes End, Tipton

Are you thinking I've found the wrong Mabel ?
I've gone through this again and I'm still coming up with the same info for mabel

I think you have the wrong Mabel as she is still living with parents in 1911. where did you get the date of marriage fromfor Mabel and Thomas Cummings ?

Thanks Kd

Or couldnt her father have added her to his 1911 census by mistake after she'd married Thomas

1911 15 Court 3 House, Back 187 Park Road, Aston, Birmingham.
Thomas Cummings (27, Iron Moulder, born Birmingham), his wife Mabel (22, born Birmingham), and thier son: Samuel Thomas (2, born Birmingham).

Birth of son Samuel Thomas 1909 Aston O6D 328 has mother as Butler

Another confusing post

Everything I've posted is from Tipton Remembers page my previous post above, war records online and Ancestry

I do always go through them.
