George Frederick Evans, b 1884 Burslem

[silvery]

1911 census has him George Fredrick Evans, 27 in Middlesbrough, a police constable married with one son.   His wife is Sarah Josephine Weastell b Middlesbrough. 

I can't get any further back with George.   
He is not the one who is a potters holloware presser in Hanley, son of George and Sarah, as he is with his widowed mother in 1911.   

Just seeing if anyone can pick him up before I have to get the marriage cert.  This is for a friend so worth asking on here.  Here's hoping ............

Burslem came under Wolstantan RD so his birth cert would be better than his marriage cert

Births December qtr 1884 
   
George Frederick    Evans    Wolstanton    6b   176

Mothers maiden name was Harper - see www.staffordshirebmd.org.uk

oo - will look for a marriage.  thanks.  Had forgotten about the Staffs bmd.   And can't fathom out how to do a findmypast search with birthplace.

1891 has a George Evans aged 6 b Burslem parents George A and Emma - have you already discounted it?

That is the one.   excellent.  The son  of George Frederick b 1884 and Sarah Josephine called George Alder Evans b 1911.     I am very rusty at the moment,  not done this for a while,  grateful for any more you can get,  Thanks.

I'm finding it very hard to use findmypast.   Can't see where to put in the reference for this.   Are you using ancestry?   

Gottit.   At last.  Looks promising, names are used in the later post 1911 family, Ethel, George, Harry.   Think I'll have to get to library to use ancestry.  Unless I can fathom out FindMyPast.
