Birth registered at St Saviour, Southwark, July 1878

Married 22nd June 1901 (see attached image) at Camden Road Baptist Church. "The bride was neatly attired, and was given away by her eldest brother Mr W J Hales. The four bridesmaids were Miss E R Hales... and three Misses Roberts... Mr G Perry was best man".

Living at 63 Roman Road in 1906 according to Christening record for son John.

Listed at 361 Caledonian Road in 1916 and 1929 as a furniture dealer according to the Post Office Directory. Also on electoral register at same address in 1931.

Buried 1st July 1960 in Islington Cemetery according to deceasedonline - but this conflicts with my date of death above, so wonder if the year is incorrect. There is one other John Gough Roberts, born in Wrexham district in 1897 - so perhaps this is him but it seems unlikely as Islington was our John’s haunt.

Wife: Martha Hannah Hales (born 3.3.1878 Yorks Sheffield died 21.10.1957 Islington) View NotesHide notes

Record of approx birth on IGI - which is presumably derived from census returns. 1939 Register confirms actual date of birth.

Husband: David Jones (born 1883 Merioneth Towyn )

Son: Arthur Leonard Jones (born 20.10.1908 Toxteth Park, Liverpool, Lancashire died 1984 ) View NotesHide notes

Possibly married Constance Draper (born 13th April 1917) in 1936, which case they were at 2 Lindale Road, Liverpool with child Patricia A., born 5th March 1937. He was a plasterer. There is record of death of Arthur Leonard Jones, with same birth date as on 1939 register so I am pretty sure they are the same person. But with Jones being such a common surname I cannot be 100% sure that is our Arthur Leonard Jones born in Toxteth Park, Liverpool.

Thomas William Roberts Notes:

Was still a baker in 1874 at Christening of Elizabeth and living at 37 Eagle St. In 1875 they were living at 55 Theobolds Road according to Christening record of Thomas William 1875. Could not find other records, but they moved about a bit it seems.

Listed in 1906 Kellys directory as furniture dealer at 224 Hornsey Road.
