Birthca 1896, Clapham, Beds
Notes for Alfred J Webber Jones
No Alfred J W Jones registrations but loads of Alfred Johns though none in Beds. He and his two next siblings were stated in the 1901 census to have been born in Clapham, Beds but only the second two were registered, in Bedford district.
In the 1901 but not found in the 1911 census.

Is this his marriage:
Surname First name(s) Spouse District Vol Page
Marriages Sep 1924 (>99%)
Jones Alfred J W Wakefield Lewisham 1d 2331
Wakefield Ethel Jones Lewisham 1d 2331
I’ve order the certificate (Feb 21 2013).
March 2013, TFPL: The certificate has arrived and is is for an Alfred John William Jones, so is not the right person. Se we can forget what is below this.

In the search for their children, there will be much confusion from the fact that between 1915 and 1930 there were 15 Jones-Wakefield marriages, of which 8 of the Joneses were male:
Surname First name(s) Spouse District Vol Page
Marriages Sep 1917 (>99%)
Jones Harry Wakefield W.Bromwich 6b 1391
Marriages Dec 1920 (>99%)
Jones Frederick Wakefield Southwark 1d 308
Marriages Jun 1921 (>99%)
JONES Fred WAKEFIELD West Derby 8b 353
Marriages Mar 1922 (>99%)
JONES Charles O Wakefield Nottingham 7b 458
Marriages Sep 1924 (>99%)
Jones Alfred J W Wakefield Lewisham 1d 2331

Marriages Dec 1929 (>99%)
Jones John Wakefield Cheltenham 6a 987
________________
There are of the order of 50 Jones births with Wakefield mothers from 1924 to 1950. While Alfred both married and died in Lewisham, there are no births in Lewisham so it is tempting to see the odd Jones with a second or third initial of ‘W’ for Webber as his children:
Surname First name(s) Mother District Vol Page
Births Mar 1926 (>99%)
Jones Donald W Wakefield Thornbury 6a 39
Births Sep 1931 (>99%)
Jones Constance M Wakefield Barnet 3a 861
Jones Frank W Wakefield Droxford 2c 269
Births Mar 1933 (>99%)
Jones Dennis W Wakefield Dover 2a 1744
Births Mar 1939 (>99%)
Jones Michael J W Wakefield Lambeth 1d 247
Births Sep 1942 (>99%)
Jones Frederick W Wakefield Staines 3a 2
It would cost £60 to validate all of these!
________________
This death has the right initials but the birth year is slightly wrong:
Name Alfred J W Jones
District Lewisham, Greater London
Date of Birth 1898
Page 0274
Volume 5D
Registered January - March 1967
This is almost certainly the Alfred John William Jones whose marriage certificate is referred to above. So this is NOT the death record of Alfred John Webber Jones.
