Can I just ask what proof you have that confirms TW was born in Galway? It will help with any further research undertaken.windowframe wrote: ↑24 Feb 2021, 10:08 2. Thomas Ward was born in Galway, Ireland and not Birmingham, I have proof of that.
Also, you haven't confirmed yet what TW's occupation was - as per the 1940 and 1942 birth certs. That info will help, as well.
Sounds like you're working with mainly verbal family history re Thomas Ward. Going forwards, if you have any confirmed facts about him, as per certs and documents, it would help take research further if you include them.
