Siblings 6 brothers and 2 sisters Patriarch & Matriarch John COURT, b. 22 May 1654, Chiddingfold, Surrey, England , d. Yes, date unknown (6 x Great Grandfather)
Annie DWIGHT, b. Abt 1874, Southall, Middlesex, England , d. Sep Q 1939, Brentford Reg Dist, Middlesex, England (Age ~ 65 years) (Mother)Notes - Haven't found a birth register entry for William as Dwight or Court. The baptism entry implies he was born before his parents married. I assume Dwight was a Christian name but it might be intended to show as his surname - the register doesn't really allow for a child having a different surname to the parents.
