Struggling to find Hannah on the 1911 census at the moment.

Fantastic prickly holly your spot on with the Rushton side of things and Lucy did get married to Harold Swindells
Shirley they did live on Rutland road Macclesfield your spot on so am I best sending off for the marriage certificate xx

Thank you for all your help x

Hi all sorry it has took so long I have finally got the marriage certificate Arthur walkers dad was called John walker Arther and Hannah we'd 14 th Feb Chesterton Newcastle under Lyme in 1914 they lived on John street Albert Rushton and Ethel may Sutton are witnesses Arther walker was 29 and Hannah Rushton 31 Hannah was a clogger and Arthur was a wood rauger what ever that is well that's how he spelling looks to me please can you kelp me find the right walker family for Arther walker please Hannah and Arthur have the same residence at time of marriage x

well as they changed occupations its difficult to say who is the right one

the one i posted looks a possibility

how do you know he was born in staffordshire

he didnt have any family as a witness on the marriage cert to see if he can be found on earlier census

now you have his actual birth date any birth cert you get should get a match on his birth date
it may mean getting a cert

The 1911 posted by Shirley, certainly looks a good possible. Unfortunately his baptism doesn't note his date of birth. As Shirley said, at least you now have a birth date to match to a certificate.

Does it give an occupation for Arthur's dad on the marriage certificate?

Your right I don't know he was born in Staffordshire and I am now thinking he was born else where thanks for your guidance xx

No there is no occupation for John walker on the certificate x yes there is he was the wood man not Arthur x

Occupation could tie in perhaps?...

Edits (apologies as Shirley has already posted some info.)

In the 1911 census it would make sense that he moved back to Macclesfield after he had got married to be near to his parents thanks for your help x
