Are you looking for their ancestors or for living relatives?

If you buy the marriage certificate it will give both fathers names and occupations and the couples places of residence plus the witnesses. This could then help you trace them in the 1901 census backwards.

Hi im trying to find any info on the Hackforths or the Johnsons, Beatrice Emily Hackforth Married James Johnson 1919 they had a son James(Jimmy) Shaw Johnson born in 1922 Died 1944 in France.I know that Beatrice had a brother(dont Know his name) he was married and they live in Highgate Middlesex.I think James's(Jimmy) parents must have died before 1944 as it was his aunt Mrs M.B. Hackforth that left a memorial message about James's(Jimmy) death. I dont know if his aunt had children of her own, i am led to believe that James(Jimmy) was an only child.I dont know if he had any more aunts or uncles.

James Johnson:- Derby Lancashire

Beatrice Emily Hackforth:- Rugby Warwickshire

James Shaw Johnson :- Warwickshire - Blackpool


Many thanks for any info that comes my way
Sandi.
