Hi Folks,

Please does anyone have access to this church record as I am trying to work out John's middle name, which was either Richard or Robert.

Marriage in the third quarter of 1857

Humphreys   John         Wolverhampton    6b   513
Townsend      Emma       Wolverhampton    6b   513

The GOONs subsidiary website, http://www.marriage-locator.co.uk/, says:-

"Sorry, we cannot locate the church for this marriage. The entry is located between entries for Lapley All Saints (RD: Penkridge) and Tettenhall (RD: Wolverhampton)."

Regards

Mike

As his father was Robert; if he had a middle name, Robert would be my first choice.
