I am still trying to find a Leonard Williams born 1881 ish he looked older born we beleive London married a Sarah Ann Miller 1882 in 1901 Battersea they were listed as Hawkers they moved to farnborough village kent were he died any help would be great from any williams who were around that area at that time . This search is proving very difficult he must have siblings around somewhere . Two ladies did go to his funeral that the rest of the family never knew .

Hi Ann. I am not connected but had a look for you.

As there are so many Williams and millers you need a copy of the following marriage certificate to get their actual ages, their Father's names and occupations and witnesses who may be siblings.

Marriage. 1900 Oct/Dec Qtr. registered in Wandsworth. vol 1d 1119.

I see on the 1901 he is listed as born in Kilburn and Sarah in Mitcham Surrey.

I dont think you will make much progress without the certificate. this will cost £7.
Ethel.

thanks for reply I have a marrage certificate but no fathers name I also have a death certificate that does not help. we have no birth certicate . we may have one possible father but there is no out there who could confirm this and the mothers name on it does not match a travellers name. I do have a photo . The miller side is OK have traced a few of them
cheers annette
