was your gt grandad still alive when your cousin Penny got married? She was born in 1946 so it would have been in the 60's I would imagine.

I'd say going by his surname he wasn't born in the UK...there is someone on the records board offering Passenger look ups

This might be his marriage

Marriages Dec 1895 (>99%)
Schacht Albert Stoke D. 5b 6_1

Will check out the number
