Thankyou,
I was hopeing a wife's name was on there. Not sure if I'm going down the right road.
All I have on him is on a marriage certificate of his son.
25th October 1884 in the parish of Islington middx
Son called Arthur aged 24 married Alice Emma Rainbird aged 24.
James is down as JAMES ARTHUR SMITH. Artificial flower maker.
I'm hopeing to find out who James was married to and if Arthur the son had any brothers and sisters.
I know about young Arthur after he got married, its the early days I want.

Thanks for you help

Not really looking like the right family at the moment

Strange their are no other James smith's who are artifical florists.................

What is the occupation of Arthur James Smith from the 1884 marriage cert?

Unless James Arthur was married before.

Also struggling to find another one that fits with the occupation of artifical florist

The marriage of Arthur to Alice Rainbird is correct as I have the certificate, thank you all for your help I'm going to study it after tea now as my household is hungry so will have to shut down but I will be back later.

once again thank you

I'm so slow, I have just seen what you asked.

Arthur James Smith is down on the marriage certificate as CABINET MAKER.
