Birth17 Jan 1870, Prob Chelsea district, London
Death14 Jun 1912
General1st s.
Notes for Lt-Col William Mure
This looks very much like his birth, on FreeBMD:
Births Mar 1870 (>99%)
MURE William Chelsea 1a 297
My only misgiving is that his eldest sister is not on FreeBMD at all, probably because she was born in Scotland, so he might also have been born there.
Curiously the LSD’s FamilySearch site for the 1881 census does not include Scotland, though this is on the CDROMs (which I suppose I ought to get out and examine more closely!).
