Alfred Albert Newman,
married 26 nov 1911 to Louisa Bushnell., he was aged 32 (so born c1879)
his father was Alfred Newman, a gasworks stoker (deceased)

i have checked census and BMD and cant find anything c1879 with father alfred.

Where did the marriage take place?

Do the names of the witnesses hold any clues?
