Arthur George Wilkins or Skelton b 1897

[Ladyhawk]

Sorry rwenman - I should have remembered that

He married as Arthur George Wilkins Dec qtr. 1919 Flyde, Lancashire

[Barleymow]

Found this burial


Cleethorpes Cemetery Lincolnshire

Eliza Hazelgrove age 75  buried 12th  March 1912

[Ladyhawk]

Barleymow thanks again for the info.
 
That would be Stephen Hazelgrove's first wife and again explain why he didn't marry Lucy Ellen Wilkins nee Riley until 1919, although they had daughter Phyllis born 1906

Sarah Skelton daughter of George Skelton & wife Sarah Ann Skelton nee Todd -  who's daughter then is witness Annie Elizabeth Skelton

The other witness  D Wilkins was most likely the son of Lucy Ellen Riley & James David Wilkins born 1887 ie her 'stepbrother' as Lucy was noted as married to George Skelton on 1901 census (although no proof of this)

We still don't know for sure who the father is of Arthur George Skelton born 1897 on the 1901 census

Hello Ladyhawk

The only Ann Elizabeth Skelton I can find in the marriages is one who married a William Bains in 1862 her father was Christopher a blacksmith.

So no luck there.

Barleymow thanks you for taking the time to look - I had a quick look on 1901c for Annie Elizabeth Skelton in Lincolnshire but the only one I came up with with a suitable age as a possible witness was SKELTON, Annie Daughter Single F 16 1885 Net Braider Sheffield daughter of  Priscillia (Widow) her father was  Samuel Skelton 

The person that rwenman is particulary intrested in finding out who the father is of

and

SKELTON, Arthur George

Geo SKELTON 38 Fisherman, Alford

Barleymow thank you - Arthur marriage took place 1919 St. Chad Poulton-le-Fylde,  Lancashire and he married as a Wilkins not Skelton unfortunately no further details on Lancashire OPC

Geoff-E thank you - how did I miss that  entry 

So at least you know that this Arthur Wilkins is not yours as his mother not Lucy Ellen Riley

It's looking more likely now that the birth certificate you need is
