You really should buy a copy of the marriage certificate if you want to find out any information on Thomas Morgan.
Once you have it, come back to this thread and post all the information you will find on it, onto the thread so that we can help you further.

Do you have the exact birth date of Martha ?

They married in wartime..............he could have been anywhere in the country in 1911 and earlier

Same family in 1911 (keep on file, just in case)

His age will be recorded and his father named on the marriage cert.

It will also confirm whether you have picked on the right Martha...........and avoid wild-goose chases

How did you work back to her?

I think you would need to order the marriage certificate to be sure that it is her, and get his age and fathers details.

Do you have martha's marriage certificate?
