Many thanks for the quick responses Vera and Glitter Baby.

I have no idea where/when John Holton was born. My Great Aune Sarah Holton was put in an orphanage and I'm curious to find out more details. Her marriage certificate lists John Holton as her father and he was a Blacksmith. She married in St George East and was born at a mothers home in Commercial Road. I'm unable to make out her mothers name apart from Katherine. There is a marriage in 1884 for John Holton and a Catherine Temple in Bethnal Green, but not sure if this is the right family.

I hope that is of more help.

Could some look up some 1891 Census look ups for me please.

I am looking for John Holton and have narrowed the area down to St Saviour or Islington or more promisingly St George in the East. His wife's name is Katherine/Catherine. I have no idea if there were any children.

Many thanks
Janet
