Do you have the marriage cert. What was John's marital status and
What age was John William Lee and what was his occupation - ? possible to find them on the 1939 register

EDIT - an ancestry tree has him born c1871 and death 1.11.1936 Northallerton, buried St John the Evangelist, Bellerby
There is not a death reg. to fit that unless died out of area

Please can anyone help me
I am trying to find out more on an Elizabeth Johns, born 1880 at Huggate, East Yorkshire. Parents, William and Sarah Johns. She had 5 children, 3 survived-
Annie Johns b. 1900
George Johns b. 1902
Arthur Johns b 1909
They were all born in Pocklington workhouse. The two boys were discharged in 1914, but have no idea what happened to them after that.
Elizabeth married John William Lee in Nov 1914. His father was called Robert Lee, a blacksmith.
I believe they moved to the Northallerton area as I found possible burial info on Elizabeth at Bellerby in 1957.
I cannot find the registration of either Elizabeth of John's deaths to be able to get a certificate or where John Lee was born.
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
