Alfred Darnley

ID# 8563, b. 22 March 1885, d. about May 1949
Note:
  
FindMyPast records children Lily, Alfred, Rose, Charles & Doris as "Mother - Jones"
Annie, Ernest & Sidney are recorded as "Mother - Johnson"
A family member records that Ada Jones' mother was "Unknown Johnson".
-------------------
OR
Did Ada Jones marry a "Johnson" prior to her 1914 marriage to Alfred Darnley?



Birth:
Alfred Darnley was born on 22 March 1885 at Birmingham, Warwickshire, England,
 . 


Alfred Darnley was the son of John Darnley and Maria England.

Residence:
in January 1904 Alfred Darnley lived at 34 Cecil Street, Birmingham, Warwickshire, England,
 .

Marriage:

Ada's father shown as James Jones (deceased), Cardboard box maker - family member.
Indexed as Alfred Darnley & Ada Jones.


Note: between 1919 and 1922
  
Other children for Alfred & Ada?
The Birth registration for Sidney D shows his mother's maiden name as "Johnson". We are currently assuming that this is an error, although
a family member shows Ada's mother's maiden name as 'Johnson'. Was Ada illegitimate & thus also 'Ada Johnson'?
There are two other children (currently 'orphans') who might fit here:
Annie E Darnley mother: Johnson Birmingham R.D., Warwickshire vol. 6d p.324 1919 2Q
Ernest Darnley mother: Johnson Wolverhampton R.D. , Staffordshire vol. 6b p.1250 1922 1Q.
