Julie Report 2 Jan 2011 14:21

Hi, I'm trying to move my family tree past Harry Johnson who was born in about 1880 in Wellington Shropshire, (I think) He married a Margaret Ann Bagley in 1900 aged 21 and the certificate shows his father to be called John who is deceased and was employed as a printer. I can't find anything that helps me to move the tree on as I can't get passed Harry! Harry died in 1915 while serving in WWI. Could anyone help please?

Thank you

This could be a possible birth reg as Harry and Henry were often interchanged.

Births Mar 1880
JOHNSON Henry Wellington Sh. 6a 739

Or there's this one.

Births Mar 1881
JOHNSON Male Wellington, Sh. 6a 813

Edit. It appears as if this one died.

Deaths Mar 1881 (>99%)
Johnson Male 0 Wellington, Sh. 6a 576

Thanks for looking people, I will be grey before I find this one it would seem! Harry's marriage certificate definately names John (a printer) as his father. They seem to be invisible on any of the census records from 1881 when Harry should appear for the first time. John is dead by 1901.
