I am looking for parents of Joseph William Hall born Whitehaven abt 1895
Was married to Mary Scott 1913
Child Henry1917/1993
Ij ust cannot find anything that connects to him
Thank you

Look for his birth on the FREE GRO site - when you decide the correct year of birth

Or get a copy of his marriage cert for father’s name

Have you looked for him in censuses…..FREE on familysearch?

Sorry, but if you 'haven’t found anything’ how can you possibly know where he was born? Or even approximately when?

Mary had second initial ’J’

Are you 100% certain that Henry born 1917 was the child of the 1913 marriage? What evidence do you have?

What do you mean by not finding anything that connects to him? Where have you looked?

Joseph William was NOT the father of Henry, who is apparently the focus of this request, and is in Pauline's tree with incorrect birth date (as per my earlier post)

If Pauline ever returns to this thread, perhaps she will enlighten us as to who she is actually trying to research :-S :-S

Thank you for letting me know
I got this info off what the family was told
I will back track the tree now
Thank you again for your help

Glad you found your way back.

Who is your PROVEN relation among these Halls?
