Hall/Scott is common combination of names in Whtehaven...................suggest you need birth cert for factual info

IF the tree on Ancestry is yours (pretty sure it is!!).................with DoB for Henry as 1st February 1917, neither of these births is his

What do you mean by not finding anything that connects to him? Where have you looked?

Mary had second initial ’J’

Are you 100% certain that Henry born 1917 was the child of the 1913 marriage? What evidence do you have?

Look for his birth on the FREE GRO site - when you decide the correct year of birth

Or get a copy of his marriage cert for father’s name

Have you looked for him in censuses…..FREE on familysearch?

Sorry, but if you 'haven’t found anything’ how can you possibly know where he was born? Or even approximately when?

I am looking for parents of Joseph William Hall born Whitehaven abt 1895
Was married to Mary Scott 1913
Child Henry1917/1993
Ij ust cannot find anything that connects to him
Thank you
