I am trying to find the parents of Albert Thomas Jenkins, b 1871 Burnley Lancashire. I can only find Albert on the 1901 census married and living in Burnley. I have also searched any county.
I would be very grateful for any help in finding Albert's parents.
Thank you

Have you got his marriage certificate for his Father's name, to save confusion?

Lesley

No I don't have his marriage certificate, but it looks like I may have to get it, as it would be easier.

Thank you
