It looks as if Ancestry's LONDON marriages have a John Henry Wall marrying Fanny Ellen Roberts, and that he was son of John. (circa 1871)

Could sks give me the details, please?

His father should be John Henry, decesaed, sealing wax maker.

Was this John jnr's occupation?

Who was his bride's father?

Who were the witnesses & where did they marry?


I have John b 1849 in 1851, 1861 & 1881 but I cannot definitively locate him in 1871. He might be in Balham as a printer or painter - the whole entry is clearly garbled.

That makes sense: George was his grandfather. Thanks, Wendy!
