Hi, would you be able to scan in a bigger area of the certificate so that we could see more writing to compare the way the writer forms the letters?

She married samuel sollars, can't find the marriage anywhere though. Looks like she was born 1837 or 40 depending on which census you go by and died 1888. Born in Clifton, bristol. Samuel born 1840 long ashton.

Lots of people have looked for me and can't find her name that is why i ordered cert.

Any help welcome.

Would posting the whole cert help, cos the first letter seems to match the T in Twenty on the date.

Kev.
