(There is a birth record for Bengman (Benjamin) McGuire, born 5 February 1923. There is no death record for this child. There is a death record for Robert McGuire, died 5 August 1923 (born 6 January), but no birth record. I have regarded these as two separate children in the past, but have come around to the theory that they may be one and the same.)
