    was there an occupation given for his father? It might help to narrow down the list

    The marriage is on Ancestry London Marriages and there is no occupation given for the deceased Thomas, so no help there.

    No Wilson witnesses either.

    Only found 1 Arthur Thomas Wilson with a father Thomas in both 1901 and 1911 and that is in Pontefract and he was born there c. 1895.

    1901 ref. - RG13/4300/81/1

    In 1911 this young man was a Cycle Repairer.

    As Vera in 1901 was living in Camberwell RG13; 504; 47; 31, I would have thought Arthur would be found not far away.

    There is an Arthur living in Penge in 1911, but he was b. about 1892 and was a tobacconist's assistant. His mother was widowed RG14PN3679 RG78PN138 RD42 SD2 ED26 SN158, but the 1891 RG12; 625; 117; 64 shows her husband to have been a Frederick, so that's no good.

    There's an Arthur Wilson who is a printer's labourer in 1911 living in Islington (b. Hoxton), mother widowed RG14PN946 RG78PN32 RD10 SD6 ED44 SN242. In 1901 his father is shown as Arthur, also a printer's labourer, and young Arthur is b. Islington 1894. Not much good for the father's name, but I would have thought that if he was in the printing trade, this could have led to engraving.

    In 1901 there is an Arthur with father Thomas in Clapham, b. Stockwell in abt. 1892 RG13; 466; 27; 45 copyright TNA. In 1911 Arthur is not shown with this family.

    Have a look at the Military records. There are a few Arthur Thomas Wilsons on A......y.
