Find Ancestors

I have found William Hearson (born 26/2/1878 )on the 1939 Register living at 13 Cross Street, Arnold Notts, also with him is a Harry Smith born 12/3/1918 Basford (mothers maiden name Turton) & a Maude Smith born 25/3/1915 ( maiden name Hind) they married 1938 at Basford. They possibly divorced as she then married a Norman C Minard in 1948 at Basford
I would like to know if Harry Smith is related to William Hearson or they are just lodging there?
William Hearson married a Jane Elizabeth Cox in 1897 at Basford,she died in 1927 at Basford.
Any help much appreciated.

Although Smith is obviously a common surname, the birth records of William appear to show his mmn as Smith so maybe he and Harry were related

Neither of the Ann Smiths found above has a brother George as far as one can tell

1939 doesn't, as you know, record relationships.

Have you done any research yourself to determine whether there is a connection?

I would think it unlikely that there is one.

William Hearson parents were John Hearson 1848 at Arnold & Ann Smith 1851 died 1908 at Arnold they married 1869 Basford, I do not know who her parents were

Frederick Henry Smith born 1881 mother was ? Stout
