Find Ancestors

Advice needed My grandfather was George Collins C1881 who married Ada Evans May 1915. in Newbury Berks On wed cert George was living at 14 Water Lane Winchester and his dad was Henry Collins deceased. I believe George came from Newbury but I can only find 1 George and Henry Collins on 1881 census in Newbury How can I prove that they are the same people or am i barking up the wrong tree

Is there an occupation for Henry on the marriage cert?

Andy

Have you found him in 1911? This would help obviously! Do you have an occupation for him and his father?
