Hi John Since Jack is given as dying aged 24 in Feb 1941 there is an 80% probability that he was born earlier up to Feb 1916. I would like to nominate Jack Laws (mother a Laws) registered in June 1916 (same age as his wife) at Bury St Edmunds which is just down the road from Ipswich.

Percy 'Jack' LAWS born 1917 was killed it is believed at the Parnell Aircraft (Gun Turret Works) Yate GLS in an Air Raid 27 Feb 1941 and what was left of him was buried a Sodbury GLS. On 23 Apr 1941 his estate such as it £156 10s was went to Joan Gwendoline LAWS of 92 St Johns Road Ipswich SFK whose maiden name may have been BLIGHT born 1916, I found her remarrying in 1945 to Henry G HAMBLING she died 1996 in Ipswich.

Don't always assume a "Jack" is really a John. In my family I have one Jack whose registered name is Joseph, and another known to family and friends as Jack, but who was born Patrick. That last one definitely caused some difficulties in finding census records!
