sorry - on his son's marriage certificate

Angela Report 14 May 2008 17:37

Hi traci,
on his son Edward Wilson born 1914, edward senior is a wage clerk but that is 1938....so like you say it's money aswell and with the time span could have changed jobs

Eames

Eames Report 14 May 2008 17:33

Not sure Angela.. You said that he was a Wages Clerk, 1901 says Insurance Collecter.. Thats money as well.. Dont know! I'm trying to see where this chap got to in 91

But are you SURE it's him though..? The image does say 14 - there's a birth for John Edwin in 1877 in Birmingham.

You'd want those in Aston by this name

i've looked on family search for harriet and edward....and just come up with what you have given me without Thomas?
So i wonder if this is the right bunch as you gave me Edward aged 21 with his mother and the smith and hands families on the 1901 census
