HELP needed, I'm trying to research the Morgan Line (my partners family) and have come to a complete dead end. Maybe a fresh pair of eyes could help? |

Yes a marriage cert can be ‘wrong’. |

When a child was illegitimate, they often made up a father for the marriage certificate "because it looked better". |

If he was 35 in Oct 1898 he was born before December 1874, by about 11 years |

A tree on Ancestry says he died in 1907 in West Ham - the only John Morgan death with those criteria is for a 55 year old |

Jane married John Morgan 1898 and she then married John Adderson est 1905 |

Found the marriage now - she called herself Ewers, but there's no obvious death for John, which is probably why she didn't use the name Morgan. |
