The year would be abt 1847-48. >From his marriage in 1870 in London, I know that his father is John MASTERS, occupation Coachman. I have not yet found any more information about his family and am currently looking for him in the 1871 census to see if I can find out what parish he may be living in. Do your Masters have any ties to Yorkshire or the parish of Christchurch, Spitalfields in the Whitechapel district of London? This is where Henry married. In particular did the John you mention spend any time in London or Yorkshire?
