Thank you , Catherine, Willy, as he was known, married my mother's sister, May Tissington. All the information you have given is very useful to me. Their daughter, Vera, my cousin, died 2013. She never married and left no will.

Catherine

Catherine Report 27 Apr 2015 16:57

Joseph,
so if you know for definate that he married May Tissington, then the first thing to do is to buy a copy of the marriage certificate, (you can find the details on my earlier post).
This should give you the name of his father and his occupation which should help to confirm if the census info I posted is the correct family.
Always best to back any information found with the correct documents to make sure you don't go off looking into a family that is not correct.
When you have the certificate, you could come back to your post and put the details so we can see if the census records are correct.
After that we can either go on looking into the above family, or take another look to find the correct one.

On his own at the same address as above, so perhaps, like his sister, he didn't marry.

Thank you, rootgatherer, Alfred and Vera were my cousins but I don't know Arthur Henry Mayo. Certainly not a son of William Charles Mayo. Your efforts much appreciated.
