Evidently we haven't accomplished anything here towards finding the parents of Henry/Harry. If that's him in 1939 giving birthdate of 1893 it couldn't possibly be him in 1901 census giving birth year of 1883.

only way to be sure is to buy the marriage certificate!

Otherwise, it's all guesswork

Looks good, Malyon, except Harry/Henry was born 1883 not 1893. Could that be correct, Alan?

Hard to find him on a census, suggest you get marriage certificate to get father's name.
