Thank you Rosie. The Margaret is his second wife to be. Apparently did not divorce first wife, maybe waited until after her death before finally marrying, perhaps on religious grounds?

You should have mentioned that to start with  :)

one to look up - he would only be 18 though - from Lancashire bmd

BOLTON   John W   HAYLINGS   Frances F   1921   Barton-on-Irwell Register Office or Registrar Attended   Salford   BAR/63/71

you did say he married at a young age and Manchester area - needs more looking in to for confirmation ??
good luck

Frances F Haylings (garstonite’s post) is elusive :-\


Do you think this might be a possibility for Frances F Haylings/Bolton? Although she has another middle initial in her name  :-\

That’s good Ladyhawk  :)
Even if she is not the first wife - odd how there is no sign of her earlier.

She is in 1911 too, still living with mum but also a Haylings boarder so likely to not be the one who married your Mr Bolton.

Thank you to you all for the helpful suggestions you have made. I am a
little backward in working out how to send thank you replies( age I expect).
So please do not think me ungrateful or  lacking in manners. I am appreciative of all your suggestions and assistance.
