Find Ancestors

I'm trying to locate George William's father George Parker, born abt 1847 Bristol?
Mother unkwon but could be Elizabeth ?????
All I know is from marriage Certificate is George William Parker, was deceased, before 13 novmber 1889, and was an "Engine Driver"
Any help much appreciated

Have you looked on the 1881 census?

Free to all............

www.familysearch.org

Are you just guessing his year of birth? And his birthplace?

If you are, it would be better not to..............you could end up following entirely the wrong line....

When and where was George William born?

Yes but not find any thing because i do not know of any other family members

Please answer the other points raised.............

You know his son's details..................

George william Parker was born bristol, either 1868 or 1870

So have you looked on 1881 for the son?

How old was the son on his wedding day? In which month of 1889 did he marry?

Hi

Hi Peter

If Dorcas was his wife...their is a tree on Ancestry which has George William etc on it.

It has George William's birth date as 02 MAY 1869
Bristol, Somerset, England and his mothers name as Elizabeth Green born abt 1850, Bristol.

Who were the witnesses?

Hi Tina
yes the tree on line is mine but i'm douting his birth year due age at death and on marriage cert do not add up

Hi Ricochet
Witness were not family members
Naomi Rounsley, M J A Dickinson.
Which to me suggest that they ran away and got married secretly?
