Hi again So how do you know the George with the SMITHs in 1911 is your George? If it is, there is something wrong as there are three George STEVENS births registered Monmouthshire 1892 + or - 2 years George Thomas b1891 died 1917 (parents David & Elizabeth) Charles George b1892 still with parents in 1911 (George & Mary) George Burley b1893 still with parents in 1911 (Fred & Elizabeth A) I know I should have asked but what is the address on the marriage cert ? Did George serve in the war ? I presume they also had a Leslie 1915 in Shropshire? The only death that fits your information records him as George J STEVENS England & Wales, Death Index, 1916-2007 about George J Stevens Name: George J Stevens Birth Date: abt 1892 Date of Registration: Sep 1958 Age at Death: 66 Registration district: Shrewsbury Inferred County: Shropshire Volume: 9a Page: 153 Do you have the certificate to know what the J stood for Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) > Hello Nivard > Yes I did find him on the 1911 census > on the marriage Certificate he was a Labourer and his father > deceased and just the sir name Stevens > the witnesses were Louisa Smith and George Thomas Carruthers > they did have a son George Martin and a little girl Emily May > but she died. > 1914 they moved to Shropshire Oswestry > that is were he died 1958 > Veneita
