I note that on the 1911 census, Joseph himself has not said that he or his wife are married. That has been completed by the enumerator. They may have been together for 29 years, but he baulks at committing a blatant lie to paper.
It might also be possible that a religious (ie Catholic) ceremony was held, but the registrar was not available. So they would be married in the eyes of God, but the civil aspect of marriage was not completed. There ought to be no reason why that should happen in the 1880s, but it is feasible.

I cannot find (name removed in case still living) nor his father Thomas (b. 29 Sep 1898 from baptism record) on the 1939 register, although I accept that (name removed in case still living) would have been only 7 years old and may be blanked out of any document. He could have also been living with relatives? This whole branch of my family has turned out to be a bit of a mystery. I just wish I'd started this research a lot earlier when other aunts/uncles were still alive and may have been able to help.

This is most likely Thomas:
https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageview...a&pId=23841143 His year of birth is two years out, but the right month and day (my birthday lol!). I'm just about to remove Thomas's son's name from your post as he may still be alive and we don't allow posts about living people without their permission. If you know he is dec'd I can add his name back later!

Oh, I just looked to see who the parents of Bernard are. I wonder if you have the correct Thomas for the husband of your Edith as it looks like that Thomas with dob 29 Sept 1896 was married to Florence Clews in 1916 and his wife in 1939 was Florence. There is also a Lucy Clews in the house who may be his mother-in-law. Of course this Florence might not be Florence Clews, but I can't see another potential marriage after 1933 to a different Florence.

Could this be the right Thomas if that one isn't.
