Does any of the documentation you have state where he was born

Unfortunately not... I originally got to the Census information by going through my now deceased fathers attempt at a family tree. I can only assume he might have gotten that information from a better source (his father, the son of younger William [James]).

Also when I checked on Ancestry I have a few distant cousins who have linked that census data also, but of course this is less reliable.

I also found his marriage certificate to Ada Amelia Branson stating that William Wright had parents named William and Emma Wright and was born in 1891.


1919
BRANSON,    Ada A
RUTHERFORD, Charles G
Perth
#515 

1932
RUTHERFORD, Ada A    
MASON, James G    
Perth
#640

This marriage certificate will have provision for the names of both of his parents including his mother's maiden surname, his age, place of birth, occupation and marital status.  Are you saying that those columns are blank?

Debra  :D

It is always a problem with wrong information being copied on, I suspect most of us on here have seen several cases of it in online trees.  What bothers me most with this family's trees is that none of them can find a connection between this family in 1911 and the 1932 Australian marriage nor is there any indication that they have tried to track William and Emma and the rest of the children after 1911.  Shame we still have a few years wait for the 1921 census, still I will keep looking.

I see on your other post that you are going to send for certificates, can you please let us know what they say when you get them.

Hi Rosie, the death certificate of James Mason / William Wright arrived and it said he was born in London to William Wright and Emma Farr. I went through the William Wright (seniors) marriage certificate and found out his parents were James Wright and Jane Higgins.
