Jacob George WAITE

[inxight58]

Hi
I am trying to find out about my great uncle Jacob George Waite. I know he was born around 1894 in the Manton area of Wiltshire. And in 1901 he lived in winifred street which i think was in swindon. His father is john everitt waite and his mother was a harriett julia king i think. I am trying to find his date of birth and when he died. And also if he married etc. I know that sounds alot but any info would be great.
Thanks
