Unless you're lucky enough to find a rellie researching the same family, the best way to find out more about JWP is to buy his marriage cert: this will give his age and father's name/profession, which will make it possible to look for him on censuses.  (I had a quick look at the 1901 census, but there are just too many possible John Pearsons!)

You could try looking for Wifred's brothers on the images of the GRO BMD index - free at http://www.ancestry.com/search/rectype/vital/freebmd/bmd.aspx  After 1911, the mother's maiden name is given, so you should be able to find any born after that date.  It takes a bit of patience, but you can usually find the records you need.

Hello Aliwoo,
I haven't found John yet in 1901, but this may be his family??? There is John William with them in 1891

1891 268 Danesmoor Clay Lane ClayCross Derbys
John Pearson Colliery Labourer Notts Moorhouse
Emma wife 32 Lincoln Bassingham
JOHN WILLIAM 9 Woksop Notts
Mary E 8 Worksop Notts
Thomas E 7 Bolsover Derbys
Alice 5 Langwith Derbys
Herbert 2 Ratcliffe Notts
Mildred 1 Worksop Notts

by 1901 it looks like Emma had died and John had remarried?
1901
North Wingfield
John Pearson  Head 40 General labourer Newark Notts
Annie L Pearson wife St Giles London
Herbert son 12 Notts Worksop
Mildred 10 Notts Worksop
Harriett 8 Yorks Bawtrey
George H 2 Wingfield Derbys

Dolly Shelley visitor 5 Paddington
Phyliss Shelley visitor 3 Paddington
Cissy M Shelley 4 months Paddington
Elias Dexter Boarder 23 Pipe Moulder Alfreton Derbys
RG13/ 3242 Page 6

Maybe (because of the age gap) George H was John Williams half brother??

1881 John and Emma are living at 1 Bracebridge Worksop with Johns brother Walter Pearson and family and John is an ag lab.

Maybe his Occ is given as Farmer on wedding cert as he was poss working as an ag lab at that time???

Will try to find John in 1901 later-what was his occupation at time of marriage??

Think this could be John William in 1901
1901 93 Cheapside Worksop Notts
Frederick J King Head 27 Colliery Blacksmith Bedford Colesdon
Rebecca E wife 32 Worksop Notts
Elisie greaves Neice 7 Worksop Notts
JOHN W PEARSON  Cousin 23 Colliery Blacksmith Gatesford Notts (Gatesford is an area of Worksop)

RG13/3124 130 36

So it seems like John was related to the Kings -maybe  Edith King (witness at marriage) was a cousin ?
