Thank you Geoff. Unfortunately I have no idea about C Jones whatsoever! I seem to be going round in circles.

If you know C Jones' forename, you can search on freebmd for his birth [say ca 1923 - 40] likely in South Shields as Benjamin seems to have lived his life there & you will get his mother's maiden name.

There is a birth for (*) 1934 Jun quarter 10a 1128 Mother's maiden name Bell. A possibility which can only be confirmed with the birth or marriage certificate.

What you can do is use the references josey supplied above but stipulate on the GRO form that the fathers name is Benjamin. Then if the reference doesn't tie in they shouldn't send the certificates.

Or you could phone the GRO with the four references and say you only want the two that have Benjamin as the father - I believe there is no longer an extra charge for this, but they will confirm or not
James Stott c1775-1850. James was born in Yorkshire but where? He was a stonemason and married Elizabeth Archer (nee Nicholson) in 1794 at Ripon. They lived thereafter in Masham. If anyone has any suggestions or leads as to his birthplace I would be interested to know. I have searched for it for years without success. Thank you.

There were two C JONES (boys) born in South Shields in the relevant period ...

Births Sep Q 1925
(*)
Births Jun 1934   
(*)

One of the Ben JONESes married a BELL didn't he? (as found by josey)

:)

EDIT: too late  ::)

I can't tell you all how excited I feel with the information you have given. I know it all has to be proven but there does seem a strong possibility that Bell is Benjamin's wife and you've even given me possibilities for their son! As for John, his wife and children were also in the same region so I now need to follow your logic and try to find more details of him.
I am amazed and so thrilled with your help as I have been so stuck. I have decided that I can't be thinking of things logically and am totally useles!
Thank you again and again  ;D ;D

Apologies - it's so easy to get carried away when you think are on to cracking something.

The person I [foolishly] named from the 1934 birth appears to be on Genes Reunited. Perhaps smileyriley could contact them there. PM me if you cannot access the name or if you would like me to contact them on your behalf. And another GR member has Benjamin Jones & Mary J Bell - they might have the marriage certificate & save you paying £9.25 ;)

Two Ancestry trees have John married to Beatrice M Apperley.

She first married Hedley T Dewey in Ledbury in Sept 1925.He died very young in June 1935.

I can't find a further marriage for her to John W Jones though.

She died in Herefordshire in 1986.

Thank you once again to everyone who has taken the time to help me. I didn't expect that at all. I am now in the process of messaging all contacts that have been brought to my attention in the hope that someone will have the proof I need for the correct marriages etc.
If any of these contacts come up trumps it will all be down to your help and kindness.
For now, its fingers crossed......
