Anderson family from Gateshead?

[rcag]

Trying to find my great great grandad but hitting a brick wall

My grandfather was John Anderson who married Henrietta Holder in December 1937.  In the 1939 census they live with his Mother in law, Lavinia Holder and her two sons, George and William at 4 Avon street, Gateshead.

His Father was Henry Anderson supposed to be born (according to 1939 census) 24th October 1892 but i cant find a record of his birth to find his birth mothers maiden name.  He married Mary Smith in  Gateshead General registry office on 16th March 1915 and he is in the 1939 with the right family so i know this is him.  According to his marraige certificate his father is called John Anderson who was already deceased when he married in 1915.  I have that he was born around 1857 and died before the 1911 census but I cant work out who he married or who his family is.

Can anyone help as Anderson is such a popular name, I think i found him in the 1901 Census but his wife shows up as Ein Anderson living in Peareth Street?  thanks in advance

Could you please tell us where Henry was living on the 1939 register (It is not a census  ) and what was his occupation. 

Have you located him on the 1911 census if so could you please give details

What was Henry's father's (John) occupation on the marriage cert?

I think that the Henry with mother Em (Erin?) is this one
ANDERSON, THOMAS  HENRY     mmn ALEXANDER

Sister Maria
ANDERSON, MARIA       mmn ALEXANDER

Possible marriage

ALEXANDER    Elizabeth       
ANDERSON    John       
Newcastle T.    10b   46

I'm on the same line

Frederick on the 1901 has mother's maiden name of Alexander.

1901 -

John Anderson   45
Ein Anderson   43
Eliz Anderson   15
Henry Anderson   7
Maria Anderson   4
Fred Anderson   1

Not so sure after looking for Fred in 1911.  (No of children alive does not tally)

Hi Rosie99 and J Jen

Thanks for that,

I have located him in the 1911 census but i am not sure that i have the right one as it said Sarah Anderson his wife possibly and George his son so that is why i have got stuck!

His father's occupation on his marriage certificate was a General Cartman..

In the 1939 one he lived at 4 Avon Street, Gateshead, his occupation was labourer at Steel mill.

You might be right about the Elizabeth Alexander one though as i havent found that one on the GRO or freeBMD as i was using the GRO to look for the maiden names of the children but  i couldnt match them up.  I had the same information that you got from the 1901 Census regarding the children but i just wasnt sure i was on the same lines as I only have him registered as Henry and not Thomas Henry? It would be easier if the certificates gave the mother and fathers names on the marriages and not just the father's :-(

this is the 1939 register and i know this is definitely the right family so you might be able to get some idea off that one, it carries onto the next page but dont know if you can access the link to it
