Hi, Have you looked at the census returns which were taken every ten years and these give you an address as well as the wife and names of the children. Do you know which area he lived in and what year he was born which is very helpful when looking up the censuses. I think I have found him in the 1891 census living with his brother and again with 1901 with a wife and children.. Sending you the images.
