Eva Susan Reynolds - need some help

[avm228]

Witnesses to the 1 Jan 1887 marriage are William J. Aston and E.A. Wright - have they been traced?

A brother for Eva?

Marriage, St Leonard Shoreditch

10 March 1878

John William Reynolds 24 bach embosser of White Lion St.  Father: John William Reynolds, law writer.
Ann Sophia Stroud 24 spinster servant of White Lion St.  Father: Richard Stroud, coachman.

Witnesses: John James Stroud, Susetta?? Reynolds.

The closest I could find was this:
1871 in Kent

John Reynolds   40 Police Sergeant
Susan Reynolds   44
John Henry Reynolds   12
Walter G Reynolds   10
Susan A Reynolds   8

This one (baptised Susan Ann) can be ruled out - she is still with her widowed mother (in Ramsgate) in 1891.

I did say it was unlikely. But you just never know.

Yes.  That John (the father) was a shoemaker though, so not an obvious match on occupation.

I think they were the John Reynolds and Susannah Cumley who married West Ham Dec qtr 1850.
