Wiliam George Smith married Isabella Shephert 4Q 1901 Plymouth 5b/578.
Their marriage cert will give you his age and his fathers name and occupation.

On the 1911 Isabella is 34, with her children Flora I 8, William G 6, Muriel G 4 Ella I 3, Margaret 1 and Doris P 2 months at 15 Newport St, East Stonehouse, Devon. Her husband is not listed with them. She is married so not widowed.

Hope that´s of some help, Sara
