Find Ancestors

I am looking for this relation born approx 1890. I know he married Amelia Jane Brown in approx1912 and he was a blacksmith but I cannot trace him as I cannot find him in any records. One of his daughters is Olive Edith Reynolds, nee Johnson born in 1914 in 13 Edgar Road, Bromley. I have her birth certificate so I know I have the right Henry.

I do not know his mothers or fathers name. They have died early in Henrys life - as recalled by a member of the family.

Can you help me please as I have tried for hours to find him and cannot get any further back in the records. Thank you.

Thank you for the above info. It looks as if this is the correct info that I was looking for.Ypu are so quick in coming back with answers - I am so grateful for your help.

You're welcome Sylvia :-)

I am now looking for John Johnson 1850 who married Clara 1850. Essex. I can't find the marriage or John's birth entry. Their first child was born in 1872 at Romford Essex. I have also been looking for the deaths of both of them but their names do not seem to be on the 1901 or 1911 census so I am wondering if they died as I believe there is a mystery about this. Can you help at all please as I am now stuck. :-)

A possible?

thank you I will take a look at these two marriages.

Is there any record of deaths as these John and Clara as they seem to disappear and a member of the family said there was some kind of disaster surrounding them like an early death.
