	OK< wll you need to match him with a father on the census. Q.what is his fathers name? A. Dont know This info is on his marriage cert - it tells you how old he was AND his fathers name. When we have matched him with a potential father, then we can start to wonder abouts sibs ( but only then)

	Sadly without his fathers name you could end up on the wring line, its worth £7 and a nice thing to keep as a memento.
