[lynne_uk21]

Hi I wonder if anyone is able to look up a marriage for me please, I found the following in  the north Devon journal  October 1888 at  Northam John Henry Layton to Rosa Cox from Bideford. I have been searching for any information on John Henry Layton  and come to a dead end  I dont know his age or anything about him any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi

Here's the reference from Family Search

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/2DD1-BQ6

Do you know which church they married in?

I can't find him and Rosa together on a census to find his age or birthplace 

There's a John Henry born Portsea 1862 that's the closest I can get. 

Added - No not him, he is with wife Alice in 1891.

Changing tack do you know anything about Rosa - have you got her later in life?

There's a John Layton lodger in Lancashire shoemaker in 1891.  Married but no wife listed.  He's from Yorkshire long way from Devon.

For those who can help;
Rosa J Layton, born c 1871 Bideford, Devon, is in Wales in 1891. Presume it is her Son Sidney J born c 1890 Bideford (mistranscribed)
RG12/4374/29/4

EDIT, 1910 they are back in Bideford, Sidney J Layton is born c 1889 Bideford
Possible Marriage 1904 for Rosa

[Milliepede]

Ah that's a good clue 

And in 1901 just her and Sidney together in Bideford.  Married but no husband. 

There's a Rosa Jane Layton marriage in Dec 1904 Bideford.  Groom William Henry Shortridge.

[trish1120]

Yep, married William Shortridge, can see her 1911

[Milliepede]

So if all info she has given is correct John Henry should have died between 1901 and 1904.

Yes if he did!
