To the kind people who tried to help with the research on this man, I have recently been contacted by his Great Granddaughter so the mystery has been solved.
In short Emily(my GGM) had a relationship with a John Franklin and the result was John Aubin who was actually registered by his father as John Franklin and he was b in 1887, Emily was named as his mother Emily Franklin nee Tripe, which was her maiden name prior to her marriage with Charles Aubin. John Franklin Snr d 1889. As previously stated Emily's husband Charles did not die until 1893. As she had previously called herself a Widow on Census, quite a few lies have been told in this family.
My GF W Aubin who was half brother to John is named and signs as a witness at John Jnr's marriage and none of my Aunts and Uncles knew anything about him ...........Lots of secrets in my family :-X  It has taken several years to resolve this mystery.

after being told for years that her father had no kin, it was rather a shock for my elderly mother when I told her that she did have Aunts ! She did remember
that 2 women dressed head to toe in black and that frightened them, but they were always dismissed and sent out. >:(
I can' t thank you all enough for your help and nice to know that I seem to have seemed to try most of the options
Thank you  :D

Hi Suz
I think that Emily probably did have an relationship with someone else and John was the result. Unfortunately I can't tie the Franklyn family in with the Aubins at the moment, the one b in 1888 was with his parents on the other census returns. :(
Thank you for all your help, unfortunately I'm the oldest family member alive !
 :D

They appear to have had a rocky marriage, Charles was absent when their son Charles John died. Father Charles was a locksmith and I feel couldn't live up to his more famous father. Charles did die in the workhouse in 1893 still being described as a Lockmith and pauper. The name Franklin/Franklyn has been alluded to as step-family but I cannot find any record of Emily Jane remarrying either under the name Aubin/St Aubin or maiden name Tripe.
Wolverhampton Registrar have searched 3 years either side of 1888 but still no trace of John Aubin. Emily worked as a Milliner.

 :) Thank you weste

Hello Suz,
Not sure why it's been moved to Shropshire but could be either that Staffordshire was usually tied with Shropshire..........other reason....that's where I live, would that be possible ?
This man was my Grandfathers brother. GF always told his children that he didn't have bros/sister only a step brother and sister........however he did have several sisters and of course John.
Thank you for your message  :D
