The numbers after the names are the reference numbers you need to order the certificate from the GRO. This would be what you need to order the marriage certificate:- March qtr, 1870, District: Warrington, vol: 8c, Page: 141 Kath. x

Thanks Louise this is brill, let me just clarify, do you think that rebecca tildsley and James are Harry/Henrys parents as John doesnt appear in the othe census searches so i'm a bit confused about that!!! also what do the numbers mean after the names eg. 8c 141??? i'm not sure who the ann daniels is (bit confused by it) also with the Henry Hankinson!!! Is Rebecca Tildsley (nee peacock) married to John Tildsley?? do you think that that was his first family?? i'm all ok with the rest tho!! its fab!!! Thanks Carly...

Here is his birth registration: Name: Tildsley, William Joseph Record Type: Births Quarter: June Year: 1899 District: Birkenhead County: Cheshire Merseyside Volume: 8a Page: 576 As he was born in April and the 1901 census was taken at the end of March, in theory, he should be recorded as aged 1 not 2, but maybe this is him? Elizabeth Tildesley abt 1875 Birkenhead, Cheshire, England Wife Birkenhead Cheshire Elizabeth Tildesley abt 1897 Birkenhead, Cheshire, England Daughter Birkenhead Cheshire Sidney Tildesley abt 1895 Birkenhead, Cheshire, England Son Birkenhead Cheshire William Tildesley abt 1899 Birkenhead, Cheshire, England Son Birkenhead Cheshire Harry Tildsley abt 1874 Runcorn, Cheshire, England Head Birkenhead Cheshire He would really be over one and 11 months!! Harry, the father, is a hair dresser. The birth cert or William's marriage cert would confirm this. Merry
