the reason for the date of birth is that he is shown as 34 when he got married, so I was playing safe, rightly or wrongly, sorry for any confusion. These are the only clues I have at the moment.

Wonder if he took his mother's maiden name for some reason ?

Hello keith,

At the start you said that William was born 1915 Wetwang but now you are saying c1913/1914 and dont know where born? What does the marriage certificate say for his age and does it give an occupation for his father besides being deceased?


There is 1 Thomas coming up in the Driffield area in 1911 ( this is the area for Wetwang )

still hit the brick wall, William Simpson was born ca 1913/14, his marriage certificate gives no clues either as his wife's parents were the witnesses, born too late for the 1911 census, where do I go now I wonder, do not know where he was born, his father is shown as Thomas Simpson deceased on the marriage certificate.

I have a William Simpson born 1915 apparantly in Wetwang, Yorkshire, he married a Shiela Alice Barmby in 1948, His father was called Thomas who is shown as deceased on the Marriage Certificate, I am trying to connect him to his mother and father and if he had any siblings and wondered if anyone had access to the parish records.
