help with these Witnesses
« on: Wednesday 24 February 10 19:03 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone assist with the surnames of these two marriage witnesses

I think the second one looks like Ledball/Sedball.

Thanks

I thought the second one was Tedball but you'd need to see other examples of "S" and "T" to be sure.

The marriage was not by any chance in Sunderland was it?

I read the first one as Dixon.  Not too sure about the second one, though...

Several TEDBALLs on FreeBMD but no SEDBALL or LEDBALL.
Today I broke my personal record for most consecutive days alive.

Loads of Tedballs on A*ry, but a cursory glance does not immediately reveal any Sedballs......
