hello Dea
Here goes,some i cant read clearly
15th April 1911, at the Parish church in Parish of ???Bromley, county of London
Thomas knott, 21, Bachelor, address 24 ??carmen St, fathers name George, Deceased
Ethel Franklin,19, spinster, same address,father Charles, Labourer
Witnesses, G Franklinand Lizzy Franklin
I believe Ethels parents disowned her when she married Thomas, so the witnesses might be family members?
Hope this helps
I have had some leeds with Ethel but Thomas (who was a baker, and orphaned, no joy, so very grateful for your help

As you said he was in an orphanage there isthis possible in 1901 but the birth year is out a little.

I haven't found him in 1891 to match up though.

What was the address given on the marriage cert?

You could try to find him in 1911 from that.

What was his father's occupation on the marriage cert?

This is probably Thomas in 1911, have you looked at the transcription to see who he is living with?
