Think something else is wrong..On the 1891 census Harry is 31 and Julia is 17.
The 1901 census posted here shows his birthday as being roughly 1873 and therefore only 4 years difference in age.The truth is they were roughly13 years different in age.This man is just economical methinks!!

Have you got the will for the father of Harry? You could see if there is anything interesting in there.

Name: Frederick Cook Atkinson
Probate Date: 11 Dec 1896
Death Date: 30 Nov 1896
Death Place: Norfolk, England
Registry: Norwich

Lorraine, I don't see that 1891 marriage on Freebmd - I am probably doing something silly!

I think that Harry was working up to his correct age rather gradually!

Have no deaths for those 2 men around that period.Checked also to see if she remarried using those names but nothing.Gant is such an unusual name i am finding it hard to believe the marriage in 1891 is wrong.Right name ,right place ,just the wrong man!!
