Hi, I'm looking for the parents of a

Charles William Wimbourne. I have a copy of his marriage certificate which states he married on 30th July 1916 to a Lilian May Britten. He was 23 and she was 22. His occupation is listed as Stoker. R.N. and his father is listed as a John Wimbourne. They married in Southampton, Hampshire. So this would put his birth year at 1893. On the 1911 census I believe he is listed as aged 19 in the Military.
Any help would be great...many thanks

Thank you for the extra info. Lilian's father was called Isaac so this birth record seems correct :-)

Hi, I think I have found Lilian May Britten on the 1901 census. She is listed under Lily Britten age 7, living in Southampton, Hampshire. Born 1894 and listed as daughter. Is anyone free to post the census details on here for me at all please?
Hopefully this will show her father as Issac as mentioned on her marriage certificate.
Many thanks

Does anyone know if you can look up an actual address on the census reports rather than a person?

Each site has its own 'work- around'.

What address where you interested in, and which census?

Hi, 54 Northam Street, Southampton.
This is the address Charles William Winbourne listed on his marriage certificate when he married in 1916 so possibly the 1901 and 1911 census. Many thanks
