George Henry Gibson, Ashton-under-lyne

[Wilbo2k7]

Hi guys, can anyone help me find a George Henry Gibson's mother and father's identities i cant seem to trace them anywhere.

his full details are

George Henry Gibson
Born-1883
Died-1955
Married Ethel Davis in 1935 at Ashton registry office.
I'm pretty sure he'd be from the Hurst area of Ashton as thats where all the relatives seem to be from but could be elsewhere, thanks everyone.

p.s. Ethel Davis has a previous husband called William Morisson who died in 1930 aged 28 if that helps, cheers

Welcome to RootsChat Wilbo 

I'm afraid the name is just not uncommon enough for us to identify him directly.

If you purchase the marriage certificate it should (hopefully!) tell you his father's name. From there we might be able to track him down on censuses.

Thanks for your reply Tati, i know the information was a bit vague. but if anyone can find out any info on a possible match then please let me know anyway because i could probably rule out a wrong match through relations of theres and that. hope that makes sense to you all lol. neway thanks for you help

Thanks so much for your help  thats awesome. Family history is addictive cant wait to delve further once again thanks for everything guys

Do the names ring any bells then? 

I certainly don't wish to dictate you how to do things but if they were mine, I'd get the 1935 marriage certificate to make sure I'm following the right family.
