The marriage cert would name his father - if known - and might help with locating him before his marriage
The witnesses' names may also be helpful

Could someone please help me find information on the above.

All I have is the following:-

John Brandon married Ellen Stow in the Chelsea District June Quarter 1958.

1861 Census 81 Bird Street Lambeth
John Brandon Head 25 Dyer b Chelsea
Ellen Brandon Wife 22 b Belgrave Square
Emma Brandon Daur 2 b Lambeth
Charlotte Brandon daur 2m b Lambeth

1871 Census Chelsea
John Brandon Head 34 Dyer b Chelsea
Ellen Brandon Wife 33 b Pimlico
Emma Brandon Daur 12 b Lambeth
Charlotte A Brandon Daur 10 Lanbeth
Elizabeth Brandon Daur 8 Chelsea
John Brandon Son 4 London
William Brandon son 4 London
Mary A Brandon 1 daur London (probably Chelsea)

I can't find John before 1861 or after 1871.

Ellen is missing in the 1881 but in 1891 she is widowed (53 b Pimlico) and living in Leicester.

Any help would be much appreciated
