I'm afraid I don't think the wedding couple match your grandfather and his second wife.

I am sure you are right Ruskie as no doubt my new found cousin would have recognized the picture immediately as his father worked with my grandfather for years and this cousin was always in and out of the business! I'm so grateful for all your help and everyone else on here who are so kind!
A big thank you!
Now, should I delete all these pictures as they would be taken up a lot of space on the website?

No I think it is fine to leave the photos.

You never know, in the future someone may come along who recognizes them.

A moderator will let you know if they want you to remove them.

I m no pro .. or even professional!, but to me the ears, eyebrows and noses match on both photos (bride and groom), both photos suggest the same height difference, shame you cannot see the cheekbones in the wedding photo...I wouldn't rule it out myself
Burrell - Mainly London area
Wallace - North-East England
Starling - London, Cambridge & Suffolk
Park - London, Derbyshire & Lancashire

Definitely not the groom in the first photo - I can't see any similarities at all.

Thank you everyone for your help!
Oh what a big disappointment :(

Is there any resemblance between this last picture and the Bride on the first wedding picture????
Because this man had two sisters who were married in Manchester, one in 1927 & the other in 1928. :-\

These people are the grandchildren of my father's aunt and godmother at baptism!

I'm so sorry to be giving you so much trouble!

I don't think so Maria. Hopefully others will chip in with their opinions. There is often no likeness between family members so that doesn't mean they are not related.

No trouble at all - no need to apologise.
