Thanks for all your help everyone.
The census record that Andy posted I've already viewed.
The marriage sounds about right, so that's a bonus.
I will order a birth certificate and see if the maiden name matches with the marriage record posted.

I am looking for more information about my great great grandfather. He was married to a Mary (maiden name unknown), who was born around 1877. They had 5 children to my knowledge which one of them was my great grandmother named Dorothy born 1903. Dorothy immigrated to Australia around 1950 from Bedlington, Northumberland.
