Message from David:

"She put her father as Thomas Henry Eason,Coal Miner Deceased. We think she had a sister called Harriet and that is about all that we know. The entry in the paper we knew about but thanks for the help"

David, it's easier if you reply using the "Add your reply" box at the bottom of the page- that way everyone can see the information and you're more likely to get help :)

The information I have so far from a family member is that john Thomas Quimby was born Oct 1875.
1st married Louisa Rebecca ? who died November 1913 Kings Norton
2nd marriage under the name of Smith was to Annie Shilcock who had 2 sons John Henry in 1914 and Joseph Bryan 1916. Annie died 1921.
3rd marriage was to Catherine/Kate Eason April1922. four children William,Margaret,Tom, Frederick. they lived in Nuneaton.
Catherine/Kate we think had a sister Harriet but no more is known. Margaret said she would never tell her anything Fairly sure she may have come from the poor house as a domestic to John Henry before they married. On the marriage cert she put her fathers name as Thomas Henry Eason deceased ex miner

Well, at least the 1911 census I posted on page 1 seems to be the right one - he's John Thomas, not John Henry as you said at first:

In which case -
