Can any one decipher the residence at time of marriage please.
Am I seeing Wilhiam Street?  Really not sure

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I read it as William Street.

That's how I read it too!

Hope this helps.

Kind regards

David

William Street from me too.

William Street is just to the east of the Surrey Cricket Ground here:

It is now Magee Street:

I'm sorry about this, but there's another William Street in Lambeth on the 1864 map - near the top edge, not far east of the river. 

It seems it's now called Whitgift Street.

Another one off Regent Street in the top right where Distin Street is now.

How very confusing! 

But at least there seems to be only one St John's Church - a fine looking building, and still there, despite wartime bomb damage, facing Waterloo Station.

For anyone interested, here is the link:

Move onto the second page under L for Lambeth then click on the R to Z registration districts.

Here is the link to the page but unsure if it works:

I'm afraid that gave a 404 error message - "page not found".

It would have helped if you had pointed that out  :)
That link is from the RootsChat ShrinkLink, unfortunately I did not check it as I should have done, I have had problems before. This is from https://is.gd/create.php  which does work https://is.gd/CZvkRt

Yes, perhaps I should have done.

I thought the issue may have been with 'shrink link' - I know it sometimes messes up.
