Hilda Olive Ralph Marriage

[rachelralph]

im having trouble viewing images on ancestry today for some reason so i could do with a little hand, plus i need others opinion on this one.
Hilda Olive Ralph born 1897 st mary bourne hants
father Jesse Ralph d 1904  mother Martha Ralph nee Newport.

only marriage i can find but cannot see the image for so cannot see all info, is
Hilda Olive Ralph m William James Harvey 1918 uxbridge
father of bride JESSE MARSH

hilda mother Marths was remarried at this point to a George Marsh. is this marriage my Hildas Marriage? im hoping the image might show me a little more detail and possibly confirm this is my lady. i could orde the marriage cert but those following my other post will understand why im a little reluctant to buy any other certificates right now!

It states Brides birth date as the 21st February 1897

Father Jesse Marsh

thank you. im not sure that the information stated is helping indentify her. her fathe jesse had a bit of a up and down life and i am having trouble locating all the children fully throughout their lives. i dont have hildas exact dob in my records so i cant prove this is my hilda.

Its states the Groom is in the air force and there is a witness it looks like a C W Hawes?

thank you guys. what is your gut feeling on this? obviously you cant tell anything from the info, and you havent seen all of the history, but given that i cannot find any other record of hilda olive ralph, and that there are no other hilda olive ralph births in this year, and that her real father was JESSE ralph and her step father is george MARSH. is this my lady do you think?

I would say so.  But only a guess.

Ideally need something more to link the married Hilda Harvey to the family

Did step dad, or her mum leave a Will? They can be great for finding (or in this case confirming) married daughter's names.

Also

there is this death:

Hilda Olive Harvey
date of birth 23 Feb 1897  (not quite the 21st Feb mentioned earlier for you Hilda Ralph!)
died Sept 1982
Knowlesley
ref 36 0154

it is a long way away, but the birthdate struck me as another hint you may be on the right track
