Yes , Sandra, the birth cert should have his mother's maiden name and his father's name and occupation.

Hi Marie that is the right marriage for my gran's sister Thank you sandt

Sandra, does the date of this marriage seem right for your gran's sister?

Marriages Dec 1925
Dix Gladys M Wheeler Wallingford 2c 866
Wheeler Harold J Dix Wallingford 2c 866

If that is them, then the marriage certificate will confirm once and for all who his father was. You will then know if you are following the right line back.

A possible for Harold/Jack's birth (subject to verification):

Births Mar 1906
Wheeler Harold John Wycombe 3a 941

Hi Thanks for the information so far I think Alice and John had a son but the thing is he was known as Jack . But a aunt has said that his name is Harold John Wheeler who married a Gladys Dix, but not sure Thank you Sandy

That is the marriage 2c 455 to Caroline Slaughter

Julie

Julie Report 3 Dec 2010 13:08

As you "think" she married John James Wheeler & you "think" her parents were Thomas & Caroline

Wouldn't you be best to start with something that you know for sure

How have you got back to her

I agree with MarieCeleste - as I said before, get one of the children's birth certs to confirm Alice's maiden name and then get the marriage cert to confirm her father's name - it is very easy to follow the wrong line if you don't get certs, done it myself!

This birth seems to fit best with the Thomas & Caroline marriage I posted earlier:

Births Jun 1875 (>99%)
Hicks Alice Wallingford 2c 325

However, there are quite a few Alice Hicks around at the time. It may be a good idea to review whatever hard facts that are known and take it from there.

Are there any children on the 1911? If so, I think you need to buy a birth cert to confirm Alice's maiden name.

A tree on Ancestry says that her parents are Thomas Hicks, 1845 and Caroline Gregory, 1835.
There's a photo of their son, Alice's brother, Henry John Hicks, 1873.

There are a few trees on Ancestry that have her parents as Thomas b1845 and Caroline Gregory b1835. States they married 1873.

None of these trees have any citations to validate the information.
