Hello,
I‘ve started researching Lieutenant Walbanke Ashby Pritt and found conflicting birth dates. 31st January 1897 is often quoted online, but 31st October 1897 is shown on his Aviator‘s Certificate 3564. I‘d suspect the latter is correct, but can anybody confirm? I don‘t have access to Ancestry I‘m afraid. If the latter is correct, do we know why 31st Jan has crept in?
Thanks
Stephen
His military record (AIR 76/413/96) which you can view online has 31st October per the Aviators certificate.
He was christened 1st December 1897 (see familysearch.org which is free)
Not sure where January comes from
