My grandfather's name was George Henry Miller born 03/08/1914, his parents were George Henry Miller born 04/07/1881 and Mary Margaret Morris born 17/09/1890. On their marriage certificate it states that the father of Charles Miller. Although I believe that the father was George Henry Miller, who married Rosina Davey.
Can someone help me to solve this

Location ?

Why do you think his father is different than it says on his marriage cert ?

So its Wales

Are the family Welsh, or just the most recent marriage and birth?

The reason that I have been confused is that I was always told that my grandfather & great grandfather were called George Henry Miller. Then my great great grandfather was Charles Miller. Although I can't find the connection, except if I work out 3 x George Henry Miller's & then a Charles Miller.

This is the Bedminster one:

Never believe what you are told. Get the documents.

" I was always told that my grandfather & great grandfather were called George Henry Miller. Then my great great grandfather was Charles Miller "

so .....

George H 1914 - Grandfather
George H 1881 - Gt Grandfather
Charles - Gt Gt Grandfather

Sounds right to me.

Patchem, this is my family.
Mike, I can't find the father as Charles.
Only recent family from Wales.

Look for a 9 / 10yr old George in 1891 with father Charles and it should tell you where he was born

My money's on the Bristol birth.

What was Charles occupation on the marriage cert you have ?

This is a Georg Henry from Bristol...

Wonder if this one is your George then ?

Births Sep 1881
MILLER George Henry - Maidstone 2a 692

I will have to check, to confirm information.

George born 1881 , married 1913 - aged 32

Was it his first marriage ?

Mike, it states on the marriage in 1913 that George was bachelor & Mary was spinster.

Thanks Kevin

Always good to have the poster provide feedback to questions.

I think we can rule out the George from Bristol then as it seems he married Kate in 1906 and your George was a batchelor in 1913

Who were the witnesses on the marriage cert. please ?

What was the profession of George Henry Miller (your gt.grandfather) on his marriage certificate?
