Albert A Harper abt 1899 Old Croft, Gloucestershire, England Son West Dean Monmouthshire
Archie L J Harper abt 1895 Old Croft, Gloucestershire, England Son West Dean Monmouthshire

I cannot find Archie within this site's Parish Records, however using FreeBMD can find;
https://www.freebmd.org.uk/cgi/search.pl

Surname First name(s) Mother/Spouse/Age District Vol Page
Marriages Dec 1919
Harper Archie L J Hible Monmouth 11a 98
Hible Clarice Harper Monmouth 11a 98

Thanks to the prior thread we know he was born in Monmouth District abt 1895. This means we can find his Birth Record despite the Records having apparently mis-spelt his name;

Surname First name(s) Age District Vol Page
Births Mar 1895
Harper Arche Leonard J Monmouth 11a 29

And also his death;
Surname First name(s) DoB District Vol Page
Deaths Dec 1972
HARPER ARCHI LEONARD J 12JA1895 WORTLEY 2D 2046

Wortley is in Yorkshire, see https://www.ukbmd.org.uk/reg/districts/wortley.html

This is confirmed when we search for possible offspring and find these Harper/Hible Birth records;

Now we have the dates we can look for more info from the GlosBMD site;
http://ww3.gloucestershire.gov.uk/bmd/SimpleSearch.aspx

Birth Details
Child Surname Child Forename Mother's Former Name Year District Office Register Entry
HARPER Archie Leonard John JAMES 1895 Forest of Dean Monmouth, Coleford 51 500

Marriage Details
Groom Surname Groom Forename Bride Surname Bride Forename District Parish Building Year Register Entry
HARPER Archie Leonard John HIBLE Clarice Forest of Dean Monmouth Register Office 1919 29 43

This explains why his marriage isn't within the Church aka Parish Records within this FoD site.
