Quite honestly, I think you are going to have to buy the mariage certificate


that should tell you his age, his occupation, his address, and his father's name



assuming he tells the truth



it looks as though that is the only way as he does not appear on any of the censuses with Rosina, and it is too common a name to be sure of him when alone
