Notes - At his marriage he was a "joiner"
In 1896, he was living at 12, Compton Terrace, as a tenant. In 1921 he was at 13, Wadham Road, also as a tenant.
In the Kellys 1920 directory he is living at 13, Wadham Road, North End, Portsmouth
He was a local councillor for the Kingston Ward in Portsmouth in the years up to 1930, and was re-elected on 1st Nov 1930, at the top of the poll.
There appears to have been a lot of property to auction following his death, which seems at variance to the probate?
He left over £40,000 to his widow Maude
