The witness to their marriage were George William HOBBS and Charlotte SMITH, it is similar to the faathers name!

Thanks i will have look at the family search.

Heres James and 2 of the children from that same family in 1911...still nothing to confirm that he is the correct william Georges father.....

Don`t think this is the correct family as William is to old...


nicky

Williams age is slightly out, but i put up all the family info as i thought the names may give a connection.

Who were the witnesses on their marriage cert? Was William a Gardner before he became a General Lab.?

Nicky, Yeah thats one

His death is mar 1946 stepney 1c 208

Thank you to you all for help, I will get the birth certificate and hope it is the right one. I will keep looking for him in 1881 and 1891 census, maybe he is with relative rather than parents.

Think it must be William George...

this looks like his birth reg......

there are no George Williams in that timescale born Kingston

Maureen

From marriage certificate it stated James Smith, Gardener

What was his fathers name?.....that may make it easier to find him in 1881 and 1891


nicky

On 1901 Hampton, surrey and 1911 Kingston, surrey. It is only few miles different and they were living in Wapping, East London. They got married in 1895 in Wapping. She is Adelaide Alice Hobbs. I did wonder if George William is his real name? It was stated on his marriage certificate.
Val

Where did he say he was born on the 1901 census? What was his wife's name? Do you know when and where they married?
