He did marry Lucy Harris in 1902 but why has the name changed to Harry? This would have made me think its not them but could it just be a mispell?

Yeah thats the census i thought was my grandfathers siblings. My grandfathers Father was called James Horry (its on the marraige certificate) just cant understand where this William Horry ties in, i cant find any old census records for James Horry to see who his siblings were. I dont know where John Horry was born but im guessing somewhere in Lincolnshire cos thats where he first married at 26years old.

I have my fathers birth certificate. I have my grandfathers 2 x wedding certificates & my grandfathers discharge paper from the army. Then this receipt, thats all i have. I thought i had found my grandfather and his siblings in the census records but there is no mention of a william there and i cant see why i have the receipt if he is not my relative.

Have you got the birth and marriage certificates of your Father and Grandfather?
Have you found either in the censuses?

Hi, I am trying to research my family tree on my dads side but am having trouble as i only have a few papers to go by and he has died. His name was Jim Horry.
I have some sort of receipt Its to W HORRY & SON, LTD Wholesale Brewers & spirit Merchants, its dated september 1921. (Rout Green Brewery, Boston)
I am having trouble putting william into my tree. My dads dad was John Horry Born 1876 & i cant see any documents that would point to William Being my dads dads brother. ?? im a bit confused.
Also i have tried to google and keep getting led to the famous William Frederick Horry who killed his wife in 1871 (they too were brewers by trade) and he left a son William Horry who would have been born in 1869.
Could i be related to this William Horry? and if so how? and if not why do i have this receipt? If anyone can shed some light i would apprecciate it because i cant seem to figure it out.
Many thanks
Sarah Horry
