On 14/01/2004, on Hugh Knaptons advice, I ordered the birth certificate of a Dennis Marshall Knapton, born 1921.
     Registration district North Bierley
     1921 birth in the sub-disrtrict of Pudsey in the county of Yorks (W.R.)
     Name: Dennis Marshall
     Born: First July 1921 (the word Eleventh was written, but crossed out, and there
        is also the number 10 seems to have been written between the word First
        and the crossed out Eleventh, whatever that may mean)
        39 New Street, Pudsey
     Sex: Boy
     Father: Harry Knapton, Draughtsman (Electrical Engineer)
     Mother: Beatrice Maud Knapton formerly Hawley
     Informant: Harry Knapton, Father, 36 New Street, Pudsey
        (note the different house number to where Dennis was born, they definitely
        say 39 and 36 respectively)
     Registered: Eleventh July 1921
     Registrar: H.Halliday, deputy registrar
        (*all* other certs I've seen have said 'Registrar' rather than 'Deputy', so
        this is interesting in itself to me :o)
I immediately noticed Harry and Beatrice Knapton here and wondered if he was
related to the Harry Knapton in my tree. At first I discounted it, but then
realised two things: (i) the name Marshall would be something of a coincidence,
and (ii) that Beatrice May Phillips, my great-grandmother and wife of my Harry
Knapton, died in 1912. That means that Harry could easily have re-married to
Beatrice Maud Hawley by 1921. I also know from Harry's marriage to my
great-grandmother that he was a draughtsman. He didn't die until 1953.
I also know he had a prediliction for 'Beatrice M's - he married Beatrice May
Phillips in 1911, and named my grandmother Beatrice Margaret. It wouldn't surprise
me if he later re-married a Beatrice Maud... There seem to be too many
coincidences here to write off - Dennis could be [is, according to greville]
my grandmothers half-brother
