Find Living Relatives

I am trying to find any living relatives who might be related to my Grandfather John Schofield. b:1890 in USA. (I don't know where in the USA he was born as I do not have a birth certificate).No sign of him in the 1891 Census so I assume he was still in the USA. He lived with his Aunt Alice Austin (nee Schofield) in the 1901 Census He married Evelyn Shepherd in 1904 in Rochdale Lancashire and had 8 children His father was Thomas Schofield who was a Grocer.

Regards

Something doesn't seem to be adding up to me. Born in the USA in 1890, living in the UK with an aunt in 1901, Married in Rochdale in 1904, All possible of course but I just wonder plus the only John Schofield marriage recorded in Rochdale in 1904 appears to be this one without an Evelyn Shepherd showing:

Marriages Sep 1904
Bamford Mary Hannah Rochdale 8e 143
Schofield John Rochdale 8e 143
Slack Frank William Rochdale 8e 143
Webster Agnes Watson Rochdale 8e 143

What else do you know about the man or his children?

Presumably this is the correct marriage in 1908:

Marriages Jun 1908
Liversedge Elizabeth Alice Rochdale 8e 81
RAYNER John Rochdale 8e 81
Schofield John Rochdale 8e 81
Shepherd Evelyn Rochdale 8e 81

As you are trying to find living relatives, have you looked to see if anyone else has any of the 8 children in their trees on here?
