Wow, thank you! Where did you find that information?

Re: The address on Johns Army papers in August 1914 is 8 Recreation Mount, Holbeck
That's why I suspect it Doris born in 1920; same address, same name...not too sure who Alice is though!

Maria had a Doris in 1920 (Birth quarter 3, district Holbeck, mothers maiden name is Franklin) so maybe that's the same Doris who died in 1922? Not too sure where Alice fits in because I've no Alice Spencer's in my tree, maybe it's a typo? Maria Annie...Alice?

Ah, that's just John running out of space. The Surrey part is for his place of birth: London Rd, Camberley, Surrey. Maria Annie is down as being born in Borobridge (Yorks), you're right though she was actually born in Great Ouseburn...not too far from Boroughbridge though!
It is strange that I can't find him on the 1901 census, if only he and Maria had married in 1901 instead of 1907! I can't find him on any census before 1911 so it's a bit frustrating, his army service records have been interesting but they don't have much more info.

Yes, that would tie in with the number of children mentioned the 1911 census (one alive and one dead).
I can’t quite make out the witnesses on the marriage certificate, I think it says F.E Setchell (or Setehell) and Lily Setchell (Setehell).
Father: William Spencer (deceased) Tailor (master)

I’ll have to look into checking with the cemetary at some point, I’m not in a position to go along at the moment. I’ve got his marriage certificate to Maria Annie and his dad is listed as deceased (and a tailor) and his fathers name is listed as William in his army records. I’ve also got birth certificates for the children and his own death certificate...not too sure where to go from here!

He did marry Maria Annie Franklin in 1907 and they had six children between 1909 and 1922, they settled in the Holbeck area of Leeds. He was an army tailor so it would make sense if his father was too, I know that there was an army barracks on London Road in Camberley....if only I could find his birth record! The only reason I know his fathers name was William was because of John and Maria’s marriage certificate (where he was listed as a tailor and deceased) and also his army records.
I’m not really sure where to go with my research. I’ve got his marriage certificate, his children’s birth certificates, his death certificate, and his army records...
