i also think there is a good chance that the G Grandad was probably born in the census'...which means hopefully from there on it should be easier, but its getting to that point.......can anyone help to get that far?

can anybody help me..........this is where i am ...........i knew my grandad was called James Allan Wood, and i figured out he married a lady called Florence Eileen Linton in 1949 in Hull,....i bought the marriage certificate hoping this would tell me more, it told me his fathers name was also James Wood and that my grandad was born in 1921 and he was a second steward in the merchant navy, his father was also in the merchant navy as a second mate. My problem is this...................how do i find out more about by Great Grandad James Wood .........all i know is my grandad was born in 1921. But there are lots of 'James Woods' born in 1921, and if i bought every birth certificate it would cost heaps! James Wood (my grandad) died in Beverley and he actually remarried a lady called May ? ...not sure of her maiden name. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
