Name John Henry WALLER Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born 1 Sep 1901 Monkton, Kent, England 
- Estimate of 1915 based on date of birth of his wife and date of their marriage, but marrying relatively late Gladys could easily have married someone not only a good few years older but also quite a bit younger.
I think, though, that the John H that Gladys married was probably one born on Thanet in 1901:
GRO ref: WALLER, John Henry q3 1901 Thanet RD 2a 1010; GRO online index shows mother's maiden name as Robbins
Actual date from death registration index and from 1939 register, place from 1911 census
Gender Male Residence 1911 7, Pouces Cottages, Minster in Thanet, Kent, England Residence 1939 “San Sebastian”, Ramsgate Road, Margate, Kent, England - From the 1939 register, where John appears to be heading the household but with him were his parents. Three closed entries (as at 17 Dec 2016) were presumably his children. Also present was a John's sister, Florence Fletcher.

Residence From 1964 to 1981 “Homestead”, 10, Cecilia Grove, St. Peters, Broadstairs, Kent, England - Probably his home from the time of his marriage to Dorothy Dale, as this was where she was living with her parents at the time of the 1939 register.

Marrying aged 61 Dorothy could in theory have been a widow, but the 1939 census not only shows a single Dorothy M Dale living in St Peters of the right age, but in the house where John later lived, so I am confident Dale was her maiden name.
