The PM to which I referred earlier - perhaps Dawn will return and give us ALL the info contained in the cert, particularly age, occupation and address

Hi,
I have the marriage certificate and it states that his father was called George Morley too, and that he was deceased at the time of his marriage to my great grandmother in 1912.
Kind regards,
Dawn

i know but i could not find alice's birth in that name

Malyon

The poster has the cert!!

there's no birth for alice e eatson could have been married to a eatson

You have marked as answered, so it will be assumed you need no further help

I know now which thread your PM relates to

You need to post on here ALL the info from the 1912 cert to which you referred

Yes that’s the certificate I have for him, marrying miss Eatson. :-)

I cant thank you all enough for looking for me, it is a dead end at the moment, but I plan to put an article in my local newspaper and hopefully that may give some more information about him after he married Miss Eatson in 1951 approximately (I haven't got my file in front of me with the certificate of marriage).
Thank you all so much, and if you do see anything that relates to George anywhere, please let me know.
Kind regards,
Dawn

Is this just a coincidence? Maybe there's a connection?

This is probably total nonsense, but, a Groom is a Horseman of sorts, and I can't see anything else for this man on the various records I've looked at.

To echo what others have said - you need the marriage cert.

The Sprotborough baptism is too early for the man who joined the Navy - and here he is in 1939 (for confirmation of elimination)

You need the marriage cert for his fathers name

That should give his age and fathers name ,if known

Malyon,

Sprotbrough is a long way from Thirsk. The 1939 register has him born November 1886.

How do you know he was born in Thirsk?

Rose

Are you looking for him before or after he married your great grandmother?

I see she remarried:
