Hello

Thank you Annette and Mabel for locating Robert

Looks like the surname has different spellings
Some age discrepancy between 1911 census and marriage date of 1920?

His father Ralph (on wedding certificate) although deceased must be on a census somewhere - would be good to find them

Regards
Peter
