John willie Bennett

[heywood]

I have just come across a published tree which has John Willie Bennett marrying Margaret Jane Blue in Bolton in 1895 and emigrating to NY in 1913.

That marriage can be found https://www.lan-opc.org.uk/

John Bennett’s father is shown as John Bennett, a coal miner.

We might be searching for the wrong family, Rosie.

It is certainly possible 

The marriage between Henry & Emma appears to have taken place at a register office. 
Some online trees have the father of John  that married Margaret J Blue as Richard.

The online trees suggest that in 1901 JWB is at 21 Princess St, Farnworth, Lancashire with wife Margaret Jane

That’s right but the tree, which may be relevant to this thread, isn’t quite right.
Hopefully rayben will come back and review this.

Oops. apologies.
I must have read it wrongly - the bride’s father is John.

Thanks, wilcoxon. John’s father is Richard as you say.

Sorry about my mistake I should have said that I cannot find him in the 1901 census, yes Ellen and Joseph Bennett were brother and sister of John Willie, When their mother died Joseph and Ellen were put in an orphanage in Warrington (tried to get some information about this but the orphanage burnt down and all records where lost) Henry took John Willie with him to little Hulten bolton and this is where it gets foggy John willie emigrated to the U.S.A with his wife and children I have been in contact with a person in the U.S.A who is tracing the same Bennett line as me but she has John Willie with different parents in little Hulton, I think that when Henry left warrington with his son they went to Bennett relatives in little Hulton and John willie was left with them as Henry got married again.
I have traced John willie and his family leaving the uk also he came back to the uk in 1913 to try and find his brother and sister but failed and returned to the U.S.A. The original date of his emigration was 1905
