I have at last found his birth registration using the new GRO facility to search using mother's maiden name - March quarter 1888 Cuckfield 2b 161. Free BMD has transcribed the district as Cockermouth and has the wrong volume number.

A visitor who came to record the memorial board has today suggested that William Carey may have enlisted under an alias.
