Birth/Marriage/Death

According to FreeBMD, there are only 7-people with the surname Dechan with Birth/Marriage/Death entries in England and Wales, none of which have the forename James, but there are births and deaths of children during 1904/06 in Bradford, that could be James Dechan's children.[1][2][3] As James Dechan played for Other Nationalities against England, he would likely not have been born in England, there are no Birth/Marriage/Death entries at all for Dechan in Wales, and this would infer he was either Irish or Scottish. Dechan appears to be a less common spelling, with Deacon now being the more popular spelling of this surname. Best Regards. DynamoDegsy (talk) 08:49, 26 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
