    Married Sep Q 1911  St. Mary the Virgin Church, Bucknall, Staffordshire, England See the place on a map and other information about it - if available (many more will be in time); also all individuals with events at this location 
    • This marriage was probably of this William Henry. The only other one which looks likely is a William Henry whose birth was registered in Stone RD in 1883, but as a William Henry also married in Stone RD in 1907 that marriage was probably that William Henry (especially as this one was with his parents, single, in the 1911 census). That William Henry had a wife Mary Jane still living at the time of the 1911 census and no sign of her dying later that year, so it is extremely unlikely the 1911 marriage was that Wm Henry remarrying.
      Hence this other marriage was most probably this William Henry.
