I'm trying to find information on my great grandfather John Walter Morley (possibly also known as Wally or William) who died on 7th January, 1928 in Hull. Various census information gives his date of birth between 1844 and 1847 with place of birth either Portsmouth or Hull. He was married to Joanna Marshall (variants = Johanna, Jane and Johanah) who was born 20th September, 1845 in Southsea and died in Hull on 4th March, 1931. John was variously a shipyard/smith's/engine fitter's labourer and latterly a publican. I would love to find his birth and marriage certificates or details of his parents and siblings if anyone has any information on him. Thank you. Jackie
