Im looking for the parents of John Morris Morralley 1903 - 1970.
His mother was called Ellen and he married Amy Jane Phillips.

I found the census form of 1911 but Ellen is the head of the family and living with 2 sons (John and Earnest)


can anyone help?

MargaretM Report 14 Jul 2011 19:25

Was Earnest perhaps born before 1901 so that we could find the family on that census?
Where were they born from the 1911 census and where were they living?

Nadine

Nadine Report 14 Jul 2011 19:28

Earnest was born in 1908.

Do you have the 1900 marriage cert?

His birth might not have been registered as not compulsory until 1875

Nadine

Nadine Report 15 Jul 2011 09:47

Yes i have the marriage certifacate but not the birth.. this would make sense as i couldnt find it anywhere!
I was just really wanted to know more about him.

Nadine

Nadine Report 15 Jul 2011 09:49

I also couldnt find him on any censuses either? nor his daughter phoebe?

Would this be normal?
