Hello all,   it's a long time since I used a forum, but I hope there is someone out there who can help, I am trying to find info for my wife's family tree,...so here goes

Ivy Gardner 20-01-1914 - 1997....her father was JAMES GARDNER (1970-1943) he married SARAH SHAW (1870 - 1951).....they married 7-9-1890 at St. Peters church , Liverpool....their wedding certificate states James's father was JOHN GARDNER a Baker.............
now that is as much as I can tell you about JOHN GARDNER.....apart from family gossip says his wife was named MARGARET and she was IRISH..........I have tried and tried to find anything without success.......any help would be great....thanks in advance...best regards...George...

Who were the witnesses to James and Sarah's marriage? (Thinking of possible siblings?)

Hello
Witness to marriage are John Gardner and Susannah Osbourne.
Lanc opc has fathers occupation barber ( possible typo)
Grooms address 9 Robsart st
Brides address  85 Abbotts st

Got this in 1871. Lodging at the house of Timothy Lamb b1825 ireland are
John Garner b1846 Liverpool. Occupation Baker.
Margaret Garner b1848 Ireland
John Garner 1866 Liverpool
James Garner 1870 Liverpool.
Couldn't find a James Garner born in Liverpool 1869-71 so could be them.

That's a good find hol.

Just looked up Lancs OnLine and found the marriage too. Says James was a bootmaker. You're right, John's occ as "barber" could be a typo.

Looking at the actual marriage certificate I would say that John's occupation is Baker.  The capital B is the same as in James's occupation of Boot Maker and the k is the same as the k in Maker.
