Trying to find Thomas King, on his marriage cert. to Florence Smart, in 1904, at Southwark, he is 37 = b l867 on the l9ll census aged 32 = b 1879. His father is deceased but was a greengrocer. Wondered if anyone was connected to the family, as it is impossible to find any definitive evidence on the census.
Many thanks,
Liz

Hi Liz,
What was his father's name? And Thomas' occupation,birthplace and residence at time of marriage?

Hi, I do not think birthplace is information which is given on marriage certs.

I know,Marilyn,just horrible sentence structure on my part. I figured the census would show birthplace.

Getting nowhere fast! I checked 178 on the 1901,but Thomas wasn't there.
So far, I have my eye on this one:(I THINK they're the same person).
