Hi ian
That is OK. Thank you so much for looking. I really appreciate your efforts. Maybe he is not Swedish but Norwegian or Danish. Maybe Peter was lying on his marriage certificate like Eduard did.
All is not lost however. The marriage certificate did confirm a few things such as their addresses at the time of their marriage. Their witnesses were Margaret Stokell and George Lord. I looked for both on the census. I found Margaret Stokell and just a couple if doors away were Eduard's wife, mother, sister and illegitimate child. I have searched for three years for them in 1861 but couldn't find them as they were mis transcribed. I also found Stokells in Sedgefield where my Great x 3 originated from so there may be a family connection.
There were a few George Lords.one of them a ship owner so maybe the one.
The search continues!
