Looking at the original, it is Dreyer isn’t it? (Compare Auguste in #4.)

Hi all,

SO - THE RECORD STATES
 Marriage
Hermann Friedrich Dredger to Louisa Elisabetha  Muller
St Georges German Lutherian Church
Battersea
Surrey
United Kingdom

Peter - were you aware he was Hermann Friedrich ???

It looks as though that is the case:

Looking at the original, it is Dreyer isn’t it? (Compare Auguste in #4.)

According to the older thread which I linked here, the original name was Dreger.

All the best,
Karen

Yes, the consensus is that the name was Dreger, I was only commenting on the actual record, not trying to cast doubt on anyone’s research.

Sorry, Alan! I didn't want my reply to sound so arrogant and unfriendly.  :-[
That's what happens when you send off a reply (too) quickly because the doorbell has just rung and the dog is barking and it is chaos... Mea culpa.

Understood, my post was ambiguous too.
