Hi Rayben
You mentioned that John William moved with his father to Little Hulton and that after Henry remarried J.W. Was living with family. Do you have him with that family on a census if so could you please give the details

If they are smart matches, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are. I am not sure of this but I think it works like that on Ancestry.

There is a tree on Ancestry with a tree owner with a name similar to your name here. It is a tree for John Willie Bennett.
What I don’t understand is that there is a photo of Margaret Jane with some of her children.
This photo also appears with other family photos (including John Bennett) in the tree already quoted here several times re John Bennett of Richard and Frances.

Did you see the migration record for Fred and the address in Begonia Avenue, Farnworth?
I also posted that John Bennett is at that address in 1939 electoral registers with Ruth Bennett and earlier years with Margaret Jane,

Lancs BMD shows:
Death 1936 Margaret J Bennett 57 yrs, Farnworth

Marriage 1937 John Bennett and Ruth Pollitt, St John the Evangelist, Farnworth and Kearsley.

Again, I want to stress that these records refer to the ones posted several times in this thread and this John is not John William.
He also has a different date of birth in the 1939 register to your John W.

    Age: 57

That is the baptism, the exact date of birth would be on his birth certificate.
