If you want John William Linsey's parents then you are going to have to get the marriage certificate for the name of his father, and addresses and occupations and witnesses will also help.

I think this is Dorothy's parents marriage:

Marriages Dec 1887 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Clark Sophia Georgina Newcastle T. 10b23<<<<
FRANCIS John Newcastle On Tyne 10b23<<<<
KINGHORN Alexander Newcastle T. 10b23
RICHARDSON Margaret Newcastle T. 10b23

Although a widow, on the 1911 census she had stated married 23 years 9 children, 5 still living (4 with her + your Dorothy I presume). Born Whitechapel, London - but this varies with each census.
