I am trying to get an answer to a brick wall I have with locating the parents of William Riley ELLWAY born 1881 in Yorkely and died 1969.

William was brought up by his aunt Emily ELLWAY who married Henry PHILLIPS and ran the Royal Oak in Whitecroft where William lived until his marriage in 1921. I have his marriage cert and he did not put a fathers name down.

He is described an the census as Emily's nephew.

I have been unable to locate a baptism for him. I have all the information from his birth onwards inc census, electoral register and marriage and death, but I cannot locate his parents, if anyone has access to any records of bastism or can help please.
