Who were his parents and where would he have been born or living? could he be John? could Molly be a nick name for Mary or Margaret?

Dam trying to find the marraige records of Jack Arrowsmith not sure of the year he was born in 1920 so would be after that and he married a girl called Molly Firmaston (just not sure if thats spelt right) been trying every combination and gone through loads of marriage records for jack arrowsmiths but nothing

I have tried BMD and nothing

If you mean searching on GR then I do not think there is a wild card option.

Anyone know how to find out owners of companies going back to the 1900's
Seems my relatives were the manufactures of condensed milk

You should use freebmd for anything from 1837 up to about 1950

Not sure what else you are after really I use Ancestry and FMP for anything else but they cost money.
