Title: Marriage look up please
Post by: Helina on Friday 23 December 16 06:46 GMT (UK)
Marriage between Henry Addison born 1843 Ickburgh, Norfolk, and Elizabeth Banyard born 1842 Downham Market Norfolk.   Their eldest child Alfred was born in 1866 in Downham.

Have searched FreeBMD with no luck.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you for your help.  Could be a incorrect translation regarding Addison and Anderson but will have to do some more research.

You can see the image of the marriage certificate on ancestry, try the local library. His name is definitely written Anderson.

I noticed that Henry Anderson made his mark (x) so presumably couldn't read or write,so therefore wouldn't know if his name had been spelt incorrectly anywhere.
