Thanks everyone for your input
I have now found the correct parents for my William who married Alice Jessie Hawkins.
I really messed it up with all of these Williams born 1856/57
( 1 ) William born 1856 parents were Thomas Blackham & Mary Boswell married Susannah Thrall
(2) William born 1856 parents William Blackham & Rose Ann Wiley married Mary Ann Hutton
( 3 ) William born 3/8/1857 parents Thomas Blackham & Elizabeth Crofts married Emma Ault then Alice Jessie Hawkins

Who links you to William?

Is it one of his children?

To pick another hole -

you said:

(1 ) William 1855 Belper married a Mary Ann Turner 17/11/1876 then Eliza Bingham 16/7/1893 his parents were Thomas Blackham & Mary Boswell


The second marriage at least is wrong:

William Blackham
in the England, Select Marriages, 1538–1973
Name: William Blackham
Gender: Male
Marriage Date: 16 Jul 1893
Marriage Place: St Luke'S, Derby, Derbyshire, England
Father: John Blackham <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Spouse: Eliza Bingham
FHL Film Number: 2080977

Father John, not Thomas.


EDIT:
But I admit that in 1881 that William is with Mary Ann, and in 1891 he and the same children are with an Eliza!

All so confusing!


EDIT again:

and the youngest child in 1891 census has mms Bingham.
So the marriage must be correct after all!

BLACKHAM, WILLIAM mms BINGHAM
GRO Reference: 1894 J Quarter in DERBY Volume 07B Page 523

The date 3 Oct 1856 is from the 1939 register - but that's not always correct.

Born July-Sept, per GRO:

BLACKHAM, WILLIAM mms CROFTS
GRO Reference: 1856 S Quarter in BELPER Volume 07B Page 411


So either 1939 has the month wrong, or else your William is the one with mother Mary Boswell:

This also doesn't make sense because Wiiliam with parents Thomas and Elizabeth was baptised in September 1856:

(3) William Blackham 3/10/1856 Heage Derbys married Susannah Thrall 20/1/1877
His parents were Thomas Blackham & Elizabeth Crofts

Rose

You also said:

1 ) William 1855 Belper married a Mary Ann Turner 17/11/1876 then Eliza Bingham 16/7/1893 his parents were Thomas Blackham & Mary Boswell

Are you sure? This appears to be your William born a year later with those parents.

From the GRO:

Wait,

You said:

"William Blackham 3/10/1856 Heage Derbys married Susannah Thrall 20/1/1877
His parents were Thomas Blackham & Elizabeth Crofts"

Are you sure about this? You can find this couple on all the censuses, yet this is the William with Alice Jessie.The DOB matches the 1939 register

They are at 21 Kensington Gardens, Whitley Bay, Northumberland in 1939.

In 1911 William & Alice Jessie are living at 4 Ninth Avenue Heaton Newcastle on Tyne with 7 children he is a 54 year old Superintendant Physical Earnse

None of 3 Williams above had this occupation
