Need some help please - I am trying to go backwards and am not sure I am on the right track.

This is what I have so far -

1. Maurice Charles Leonard Tapping born Nov 1928
(His parents - George Robert Tapping & Esther Colbourne)

2.I have George Robert Tapping's birth certificate -
Lambeth Oct 1895
(His parents - Robert William Tapping & Mary Jane Denford)

3. I have Robert William Tapping's birth certificate -
St George Hanover Square Oct 1867
(His parents - William Tapping & Emma Fox)

4. I have the marriage certificate of William Tapping to Emma Fox -
St Mary, Newington, Surrey - Jun 1865)

Both residing at Cole St., Newington

William's father - Caleb Tapping (Wainwright)
Emma's father - William Fox (House decorator)

Witnesses - Robert Fox & Mary Ann Fox (not yet sure where they fit into how they are related to Emma??)

Now this certificate has I must admit thrown me into confusion as I thought that William's parents were John Tapping & Fanny Sheperd(ley)!!!

Help me please to understand.

Thanks

Nicki
