Just done a quick search on FreeBMD and come up with:

Thomas Wright married Edith Ardern
March Quarter 1897; Ormskirk District : 8b 1074

If you send for the marriage certificate it would give both fathers' names and maybe an address or two?

It's not quite so easy to work forward from 1901 Census other than to search through Electoral Registers or Street Directorys?

But sending for the marriage certificate online is simple :grin:

If you look around the forum there are instructions somewhere for the GRO page.

The 1901 census for 121 Kensington Rd shows the following:

Hugh Wright, Head, Widower, 57, Fisherman
Thomas Wright, son, married, 25 gas inspector
Edith Wright, daughter in law, married, 26
John Wright, grandson, 3
Thomas Wright, granson, 1

Note ages given for John & Thomas

The 1914-15 directory shows Hugh still living at 121 Kensington Rd and Thomas Wright, gas inspector at 48 Linaker Street.

In my earlier post I should have pointed out that I was referring to the ages of the children of Thomas & Edith.

I think you will find that Eliza Wright was nee Howard.
I posted a question about Henry Wright in March 2007 , it is still there, and Seacop found it was in fact Hugh Wright, and checking the death cert for his father in law, (Thomas Howard who died 1889) is it probably 121 Kensington Road .
