So, if I was to ask my partner for a nice birthday present.
Which site would I want him to pay for so I can read all the censuses?
(Considering it's his name I'm tracing!  ;)  )

Different people have different preferences - as you will see from various threads here:

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/board,145.0.html

But if I could have only one subscription, it would be to Ancestry (www.ancestry.co.uk).

In fact I have both Ancestry and Findmypast (www.findmypast.com) - between them they provide a fantastic spectrum of resources. (NB - Findmypast doesn't yet have the 1851 census but does have passenger lists, some parish records and all sorts of other lovely stuff.)

Hi  - I have both Ancestry and Find my Past - for the same reasons as Anna gives - Ancestry is slightly easier to search, I find - but a lot more prone to mistranscription  ;D

Now - on the marriage cert - what does it give as William, the father's, occupation ?

And - do you know where George might have been born ?

I've found a George b. 1885 Aston, Warks, father William.....  need to know dad's occupation   ;D

The 1901 census sys that george was born in Manchester, which ties in with the little bit of info my partner gives me as on the same census is a brother called Eric.
Georges' occupation is iron stamper on the marriage certificate.
His father William (or as I now know Edward William) was a blacksmith. Which is confirmed on the 1901 census.
(Address is 6 Bevington Road, Aston Manor)

OH - Manchester   ;D   Got them   ;D

Do you want details of the 1891 and 1881 census?

I think the marriage found already is the right once - there is a neice named Fanny Thomas staying with them in 1881   :D    So the birth regs. Pete found also look good   ;D

Do you want me to see whether I can find Edward William and Sarah Ann with their parents ?

I'm concerned in the discrepancy in Georges' age. From the information he seems to be born either 1884 or 1885
From his marriage certificate, being 26 in Dec 1911 would make his birth year 1885.
From the 1901 census, being aged 17 would make his birth year approx 1884 and the same for the 1891 census,
Unless his birthday happened to be the last week of December, considering he married 23rd Dec?
