I have spent all day trying to find the following - can anybody throw any light here please. John Arnold born 1st qtr. 1876 Whitechapel. Can anyone find a marriage or a death for him. He is still single and alive on the 1901 census. I have searched Ancestry, and LDS without success. On 1901 Census his occupation is ??????? Mourn???, can anyone make out what this is? Thanks. Lin

I don't think either of those John's are mine. My John's parents were Charles 1849 and Amelia 1852. John had siblings Amelia 1872, Joseph 1874, Charles 1878, Christopher 1881c, Benjamin 1884c, Annie 1885c, Thomas 1888c and Rose 1891c
