Hello

I have the following information for William:

11/6/1899 marriage to Alice Makepiece in Islington
1911 census Islington
1921 census Islington
1939 Register in Finsbury

Trying to find birth reg (if registered of course ) 1891 census and 1901 census but am not having any luck to date. If anyone might help me that would be great.

Thank you

Have you found the births of the other children?
I can't see anything definite for any of them.

Or the parents' marriage?

EDIT:

Just found this after looking for weeks

CRANAGE, WILLIAM THOMAS -
GRO Reference: 1875 M Quarter in ISLINGTON Volume 01B Page 301

His Mother was Emma Georgina Cranage and it appears she was not married to George Denham

The parents weren't married, so the later children, including William Thomas, were registered as Cranage.

Still no sign of the 1891 and 1901 censuses.

Seems not

As suggested earlier, the address on Beatrice’s birth cert may give a clue re 1901

Digital image would cost only £2.50
