LOOKING FOR INFO ON GEORGE AND MARION WATSON (BROTHER AND SISTER) POSSIBLY BORN IN YORKSHIRE. GEORGE BORN 1904 AND UNSURE IF MARION WAS OLDER OR YOUNGER, ANY INFO WOULD BE GREAT, THANKS

Many thanks for all the info, have since discovered that Marion was spelt Marianne and there was another sister called Madge (disabled we think) Marianne was older, born in 1902

This could be the second marriage and therefore George's parents

Name: Charles Edwin Watson
Year of Registration: 1902
Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep
District: Aysgarth
County: Yorkshire - North Riding
Volume: 9d
Page: 1095 (click

He either marries Jane Skidmore or Sarah Amelia Foster

I would say this is his first wife's death

Name: Emily Watson
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1867
Year of Registration: 1900
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
Age at Death: 33
District: Aysgarth
County: Yorkshire - North Riding
Volume: 9d
Page: 437

If so this could be his first marriage

Name: Charles Edward Watson
Year of Registration: 1893
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Huddersfield
County: Yorkshire - West Riding, West Yorkshire
Volume: 9a
Page: 473


I realise this says Charles Edward not Edwin but my great grandfather's birth was registered as John Edward but marriage and death say John Edwin. Very easily done and I proved it as I already knew his parents names.

Best Wishes

You would need to get concrete proof of this by obtaining George's birth certificate.
