COMPLETED Gunnersbury Register Office?
« on: Monday 17 December 18 13:07 GMT (UK) »
Hi!  I just received a marriage cert from 1916 and it appears the marriage took place at the Register Office in Gunnersbury, Brentford, Middlesex, but I just cannot find anything about this particular office online.  Am I reading the cert correctly?  I have attached the part of the cert with the wording ...

I then wanted to know the names of the Registrar and Superintendent Registrar but cannot work them out.  I have also attached this bit of the cert.

Can anyone help with the location of the Gunnersbury Reg Office as it was in 1916, and the 2 names of the Registrars?

Hope I have posted this query in the right section - let me know if not!

Many thanks, Nina
