Trying to find Arnold

Sylvia Perry Looking for THOMAS HENRI (Y) ARNOLD I am trying to find information about my Great Grandfather who was THOMAS HENRI(Y) ARNOLD born about 1865/6 in London, his profession was Baker (journeyman) , by the time he married my Great Grandmother EMMA PERRY in 1904 he was living in Wednesbury Staffordshire, when they married he was a widower with three young children Ernest, Charlotte and Herbert, he was 18 years older than Emma when they married, they went on to have many more children. Ernest was the child from his union with Eleanor Alice Manning presumably his first wife, Charlotte and Herbert were the children from his union with Ada Grace Manning (Eleanor's sister). Marital status not known as there are conflicting records. Though Eleanor and Grace were also both born in London they were living in Wednesbury by 1890 when the first child Ernest was born. The only information I have about Thomas's parents is that his father was Robert Arnold also a Baker who had died prior to Thomas & Emma's marriage in 1904. (as stated on their marriage certificate) I have reached a dead end and cannot trace any details prior to 1890, If anyone can help I would be very pleased to hear from you Many Thanks
