Kimberley Family.

[xMrsKennedyx]

I am trying to confirm John Walter Kimberley's Parents. Here is the information I have got so far:

John Walter Kimberley b. between 1865-1871 in Kidderminster area. d. 1956 in Blackburn, Lancashire.
Married Susannah Patefield 2 May 1894 Clitheroe, Lancashire, England.
Their children:
Edith Kimberley b.1897 Clitheroe m. 1927, Blackburn d. 1986, Blackburn, lancashire
Albert Kimberley (died in infancy)
William Kimberley (died in infancy)
Wilfred Kimberley b.1904 Clitheroe, m. 1931, Clitheroe. d.1953 Great Harwood.
Susannah had an illegitimate child Ernest Patefield before she met John Walter.

John Walter's father on his marriage certificate is listed as Benjamin Kimberley but at the moment I have been unable to find a birth certificate to confirm this.

Any help or advice on would be greatly appreciated.

Have you found any of the family  on any census

LM

[louisa maud]

2 marriages found
 Benjamin Kimberly 1864 
Benjamin  Kimberlee 1865,
2 alternate surnames to search

LM

Ps, can't find a John Walter so far but I am not at my main computer.
Perhaps you could cross check marriages with a common surname to this family,  1864 and 1865, it is a common surname within this area

I haven't been able to find John Walter in either the 1871,81 or 91 census'. Thank you for the alternative surnames, I will have a look at those.
