Born 1889 2nd Quarter April/May /June
District Salford
County Lancashire
In 1945 on his Death Certificate it states he was a
Railways Ticket Collector
I have his marriage certificate to my grandma.The pair were both living at Newcastle Avenue Blackpool Lancashire in 1945.
I have been to the Council Libary and he can not be found after his birth till 1945 .
Any help please  :)

On the 1901 Census the family are living at 30 Clifford Road West, Birkdale, Lancashire. All 6 siblings have B as their middle initial which could be Bryant.

Harry Bryant Waterhouse died in 1941 in Blackpool according to the Probate Index on Ancestry.

You say you have his marriage certificate please could post details from that as it will help find Harry.

I have been to the Council Libary and he can not be found after his birth till 1945 .

I think you need to go back and take another look  ;)

We aren't allowed to do 1911 look ups, but I just did a free 1911 index search on Harry Waterhouse born 1889 occupation ticket collector and I got one result, living in Pendleton.
Also in the household are a Frederick and Ada Waterhouse which fits exactly with the 1891 information ellenmai has given
