Have you found Harry and Eva on the 1939 Register to ensure you have the correct birth for Harry?

It would be more advisable to purchase Harry's marriage cert than his birth cert unless you are completely sure you have the correct birth for Harry. He could have been born Henry.

In the 1911 census, Harry is a bricklayer and his wife is Eva Thompson.
They married in Middlesbrough, 1909.


for info. so you might rule him out there's this

Henry Nicholson right age 16 (1885) pob Middlesbrough, he's living in Northumberland in 1901

1901c RG13; Piece: 4778; Folio: 17; Page: 25 - Northumberland
Richard Nicholson 59 Driffield, Yorkshire occ bricklayer
Ann 53 Crook, Durham
HENRY son 16 Middlesbro occ apprentice bricklayer
Charles son 14 Gateshead, Durham occ app joiner

As mentioned previously his marriage certificate would confirm his father's name and occupation

ADDED - for info.

I think this is the Marriage Durham 1872
Richard NICHOLSON
female name on same page
Ann GARR

but I'm not seeing a Henry/Harry Nicholson 1884 Middlebro' birth mmn Garr on GRO

but there is one with mmn CHISEM  and there is one for a
George Nicholson 1872 Durham mmn CHIS...  and
Fred Nicholson 1874 Durham mmn CHISMAN   and
Richard William Nicholson 1878  Hunslet mmn CHISEM

perhaps Ann was married previously
edit - added
(there's this entry 1870 Auckland CHISEM/GARR and death 1871 Auckland Burnip GARR age 28)

1891 RG12; Piece: 4203; Folio: 15; Page: 25 - Northumberland
Richard Nicholson 46 occ Bricklayer
Ann 40
George 19 Durham bricklayer
Fred 17                         ‘’
William 14 Yorkshire Leeds coal miner
HENRY 7   “   Middlesbro
Charles 4 Durham

1881 RG11; Piece: 4897; Folio: 112; Page: 28
Richard Nicholson 38, Ann 32, George 9, Fred 7, Richard W 2

Please come back and let us know what the m/c says

JJ - snap had just added some info. to my previous post  re: Henry Nicholson son of Richard & Ann
looks as if they married in 1872 but her surname is GARR and I wondered if she may have been previously married
