Hi Ann Do you know his mothers maiden name at all? Could be a birth for him under her name? I spent 3 years looking for my husbands gg grandfather as he was born under a different name. Born Robert Jacobs ( Jacobs his mothers name) married and died Thomas Henry Rivers ( his full fathers name ). Census forms helped only because he was living as a young boy with his granny and Aunts all the way through until his marriage. You'll find the answers you need eventually...........just wish I had some more useful advice for you, sorry. Much happiness Debi
