Francis GRAIL documents (General)

I just reviewed the census images, and the records on this site as well. They definitely list "Herbert" on the BMD index and his baptism. The "A" is very difininite in both census' where it is recorded.

If I were to make a guess, it would be that he is the same person, given the fact that the parents names are the same, as is the location.

On my own father's birth certificate, his middle name is wrong. (The clerk wrote what he thought he heard, phonetically. The names look nothing like one another, but if you sound them out, you can see how it happened.)

The only troubling thing here regarding Francis, for my theory, is that both the BMD and his baptism record "Herbert". Is it the silent "H" rearing its head again?

Anyone else care to weigh in on whether they think it likely?
