Still not sure what he is looking for really.

Apart from the looking in 'search trees' names above, as suggested, you can look for marriages for them on Freebmd.

Michael must have the 1911 census as John's occupation matches exactly.

Hi
I am starting to research my fathers family from Dorking in Surrey !
We have never met any of his family as we live in Swansea and his mum Evelyn Brooker was forbidden to make contact with her family after about 1933. Her farther was John Thomas Brooker (Timber Merchant and wooden goods manufacturer in Dorking) dwellings mentioned are Hurstbourne which I understand may have been purchased by the local authority as their offices , also Parkside in Nower Lane ! Other names mentioned are Robert Breach who we think may have been a solicitor !
If anyone has a couple of leads for me it would be appreciated ! :-)
