A long time ago I promised a scan of the Arthur Edwin Westhorp and Alice Lucy Dilks marriage certificate.  Here it is...

As promised I have attached two pictures of Arthur Edwin Westhorp and Alice Lucy Westhorp (Dilks).

Although we cannot be 100% certain it is them, by process of elimination etc
we are pretty sure and the pictures were from the Poplar London area.

Thanks so much pjrcw - what a fabulous thing to have!  I hope you won't mind if we attach these to our family tree as possible photos of the forbears.  THe pictures go such a long way towards making what can be dry facts come alive so to speak.
