thank you everyone for your help, but it seems I was looking up the wrong path.
I got to see my grandmothers marriage cert., (Agnes Andrew Wright) and her fathers name turns out to be Joseph Wright ( Know idea when he was born or where) In 1931 he was a soldier, and that is all I know about him. As for Sarah J Wright I was led to believe she was Agnes's sister but she is in fact her cousin.

Sorry Gladys and Ethel are not the right one's, I do know for sure that Sarah J Wright and Agnes A Wright were sisters, so maybe I am looking at the wrong father and mother, Do you think this is my problem

I found John Wright on the 1901 census, married to Margaret with a daughter Sarah j, They then went on to have another daughter Agnes Andrew Wright born 1911. As far has I know they lived in Sunderland at 119 Cairo Street.
I must admit to getting very confused because of the number of John Wright's

I have found him in the census records, but never with a mother or father.
I will order a marriage certificate as you suggest but how do I find which quarter they got married, can you help me to find out. thanks

My great grandfather was John Wright born 1872 in Bishopauckland, I am unable to find a father for him, can anyone help. I do know he later married Margaret Patterson and I think he died in 1925. Thanks

on my grandfathers marriage certificate it says his fathers name is John James Phillipson (coal mine overseer). But as much as I try I cannot find a John James with a son William who was born in 1900. The only one I can find is a John Jabez with a son William born in1902. My grandfathers marriage took place in Sunderland. For the past 4 years I have been looking at the wrong family so now I am having to start all over again.

Does anyone know if Jabez may have been translated as James on any census or marriage certificates
