You'd be best buying his marriage cert, which will give his age and occupation and his father's name and occupation.  You could easily chase the wrong family , esp if you rely on trees on Ancestry!

The marriage information came from his service records not a tree on Ancestry.

I will do when i can. Im young, on a lowish income and a student at the minute so its hard to do! Ive just ordered one for another part of the family and I'm making lists of what i need to get. Trying to keep the costs down by monopolising you fine people :) x

Not disputing the marriage at all, but wouldn't rely on an Ancestry tree myself for parents' names.

Im not relying on it. Just getting as many facts as possible before making any essential purchases. As I've said, i don't all have a huge disposable income to fund this.

James, I believe you have access to Findmypast, have a look at Joseph Caswell (b. 1889  Sedgley on 1901 census) with parents Richard and Margaret in 1911 and 1901, they are a coal mining family - see what you think  :)

Looks good! Then traced back to the 1871 census there is the Corneilius & Elizabeth Caswell that were mentioned above.
