His father will be named on his marriage cert

Or..look for his birth on freebmd.........and buy that cert for the names of both parents

Where was he born?

Just in case this is relevant when you do get the marriage cert

Name: James William Welch
Record Type: Baptism
Estimated Birth Date: abt 1903
Baptism Date: 25 Oct 1903
Father's Name: James Mcfee Miles Welch
Mother's Name: Alice Maud Mary Welch
Parish or Poor Law Union: Camberwell Emmanuel
Borough: Southwark
Register Type: Parish Registers


Chadwick Road, Peckham
Father is a traveller


Probably rule this one out as I think it is a late baptism

Marriage of above possible parents ...
(in case he was born pre-marriage , under mother's name and then baptised under new surname)

Looking at that possible marriage in 1902 then Ancestry cross ref to 1911 Canada and a possible death in British Columbia.



You really need the marriage cert before looking for his father
