Help with a marriage witness from 1928
« on: Tuesday 23 October 18 14:22 BST (UK) »
This is a marriage in Purleigh, Essex, in 1928. Can anyone decipher the name of the witness top-right - Henry something?
For reference, the bride and groom are Gerald William Cooper and Gwendoline Barbara Melmoth Hamlett.
