To lookup a marriage you have to know which church it took place in - do you have that information?

If not - you will have to buy a copy of the marriage cert to establish his middle name, his age at that time and his fathers name and occupation.

You can then use the 1911 census to find him - hopefully with his parents but if not, then the 1901/1891 censuses

These are all the areas covered by the Penzance RD

Marriages this late aren't covered by Cornwall-OPC-Database.

A tree on Ancestry suggests he was William John Thomas - not an uncommon name!
Looking at the baptisms on Cornwall OPC, there are 13 William John's between 1880 and 1895 (likely birth dates).

And that supposes that he was born in Cornwall!


Sorry! But you really need that marriage certificate! ;D
