Arthur Earle Hunt and Ellen Stopford marriage 1894

[KGarrad]

So, I have spent some time in the library today and, while I can see the transcript of this marriage, I can't see the image?
Little green wheel just keeps on turning 

St Margarets, Westminster 1894 (Sept qtr, according to FreeBMD)
Arthur Earle Hunt (age 36) to Ellen Stopford (age 47).

I would like to know marital statuses and father's names.

I know I can try again tomorrow, but you lot are so quick!

Just to close this off:

I found Ellen's previous marriage (to Charles Stopford); her maiden name was Bradley.
Followed her line back to 1851 in the Bradford (Yorkshire) area - Undercliffe and Eccleshill.

The house Ellen & Arthur owned in the Isle of Man (Tremissary Lodge) still exists, and I was able to supply pictures of the house.

I am just missing the 1891 census of Charles & Ellen Stopford
