Johns dad Robert is a labourer from Dover. Mum Anna is from Boston in Lincolnshire.

Johns ref doesnt show mums maiden name because they werent listed on refs until late 1911.

This looks like their marriage: If you buy this marriage cert you will be able to follow the family backwards through census and certificates. £7 from GRO online.

Marriages Dec 1892
EASTON Robert Dartford 2a 894
Scarfe Annie Elizabeth Dartford 2a 894

In truth, you should get your grandads marriage cert to ensure that his father is Robert and then you will be certain you are following the right family. Who did your grandfather marry/when/where?

Your grandparents marriage:

This is a possible birth for her - does dad know if she was born Dartford and her second name?
