Biography
Known to be in the Merchant Navy. No record to suggest he actually married Alberta Van Bruggan, but all children thought he was their father (no evidence to the contrary).
Electoral registers seem to list him living with a Thomas James Jenkins and Ellen Jenkins between 1918 and 1931 in Fulham, London - unknown relationship with them thus far. Alberta was listed at the same address until her death in 1930.
