These are the details of John's marriage to Henrietta

As Eddie has said the boxes for Father's Name and Occupation for both of them are completely blank on the image.

Edit:

Looking at the image of Marriage Cert there are other areas on it that have been left blank too!

The top part which has the year and parish details

and

More importantly there are no signatures or marks of the married couple at the bottom left hand side

How strange!

You say no parents were listed on the cert of Henrietta's marriage

What info does the cert hold?

I can't see any scenario other than that Violet was the illegitimate child of one of Henrietta's sisters.

I'd put money on Maria

Having said that, there should still be a birth registration, and there doesn't appear to be.
