On the 1891 census I have found an Albert Ward with parents called Ephraim and Jane. Could this be your family? :- Name: Albert Ward Age: 12 Estimated birth year: abt 1879 Relation: Son Father's name: Ephraim Mother's name: Jane Gender: Male Where born: Manchester, Lancashire, England Civil parish: Beswick Ecclesiastical parish: Berwick St Mary County/Island: Lancashire Country: England Street address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: Education: Employment status: View image Registration district: Prestwich Sub-registration district: Newton ED, institution, or vessel: 46 Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age James Hill 33 Albert Ward 12 Bertha Ward 6 Elizabeth Ward 10 Ephraim Ward 36 Jane Ward 35 John E Ward 8 Source Citation: Class: RG12; Piece: 3260; Folio 41; Page 22 This Ephraim was born in Leeds and not London. The one married to Charlotte was born in London. Are you sure you are not mixing up two families? Do you have the birth certificate for your great grandfather Albert? Where and when was he born?

If the family above in the 1881 census is the right one, then this looks like Ephraim and Charlotte's marriage:- Name: Ephraim Henry Ward Year of Registration: 1875 Quarter of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar DISTRICT: Wandsworth County: Greater London, London, Surrey Volume: 1d Page: 660 One of the other people on the same page is a Charlotte Wyatt.
