If you think that the marriage certificate is the correct one, then you need to purchase that for ages and name of Father, which may help you fit the pieces together.
Or the surnames might just be co-incidence.

i honestly dont come up for air. but im going to try iil take deep breaths but ill feel sorry for the people talking to me they will be there a lot longer lol
yes the info was great
ive just got to find out where this alexander watson fits in with the family
i know that the wilfred watson was normans father
it just seems co incidental that this norman watson was in the same flat as alexander watson and his wife they must be related somewhere along the line.
ive tried looking in bmd but i dont know what year or if its a girl or boy im looking for thanks

There are some possible births of children for Alexander & Betty on Ancestry..................of which, one is almost certain to be their child.

Do you have any more information about them, because this is more than 50 years ago so depending on ages both or either could be dead, remarried, or emigrated.
It is unlikely that anyone who knew them will see this message, so we need to work from approximate ages, or children, or other leads.

Added: There is a possible marriage in 1952 in Northallerton.
