Family History Beginners Board / Missing Marriage? Harry George William Vernon
« on: Wednesday 03 July 19 12:26 BST (UK)  »
Can anyone shed any light on a supposed marriage between my paternal Grandparents?

My Grandfather Harry George William Vernon, born 11 Feb 1907 20 Manor Gdns Islington
Death Jul 1982 Westminster London.

( He had a previous marriage to a Doris M. Hawkes in March 1933 in Battle,Sussex & a son in 1940)

My  Grandmother Jemima Kellett Jepps, born 14 May 1918 Ballinabarny Ireland
changed name to Jenifer Kellett Jepps

They were supposedly married and had my Father in 1945 in Cheltenham

I have hunted high and low for proof of this marriage but to no avail.
Can anyone find different?
Many thanks

The Common Room / Harry James Vernon
« on: Monday 01 July 19 12:32 BST (UK)  »
Really struggling to trace my paternal Grandfather's parentage.My Grandfather , Harry George William Vernon was born 11 February 1907 to a Harry James Vernon ( pianoforte fitter-up) & Sarah Amy Vernon (formerly Cook).20 Manor Gardens Islington.
My Grandfather spoke very little about his childhood but stated that he had  much older sisters & that his father was in his sixties when he was born.
It appears Sarah Amy was married previously & had 6 children.Three were stated living in the 1911 census.Living with her were Emma 18, Nellie 13 & my Grandfather Harry aged 5.It appears Sarah Amy was married to a George Edwin Bolton in 1887 & the girls were his.
I cannot find evidence of divorce or death for George Edwin Bolton or birth/marriage/death for Harry James Vernon.
I cannot find trace of my Grandfather after the age of five until he marries in his twenties.
I note another RootsChat member doing a similar search a year ago & have added a message to thread but not sure if she still uses the site.
I would so dearly love to understand what happened & why Harry James Vernon is so elusive!
