Does anyone have any information on a Walter Ward born 1880 in the Swinton area and worked as a Railway Clerk in the South Yorkshire area.

I would like to know if he married and to whom and when he died.
He may have had two sons.

Thank you.

you need to find his father on the 1891census .walter would be about 10/11 years old then. Once you have found the father send for the certifcates giving the ref; above with a letter saying you don't know who he married but his father is ?? Ward and his fathers occupation is ?they will check the marriages.
If his father is not on the certificates ask them not to send them, then you will have to look for the marriage again
