Perhaps they did it to celebrate their 50th Wedding Anniversary

Pejic has it!  It is a Golden Wedding notice in the paper that says on April 18th 1894 at the Baptist Chapel, Old Sodbury, by the Rev A J Parker, Ambrose G Sprackman mar Fanny Bleaken.  Present address 152 Drove Road, Western Super Mare

Hi
Doing a 1939 register search it shows No Results for the surname Sprackman, M or F anywhere in UK.

BUT using Find my Past there are 13 records for an Ambrose Sprackman including a 1939 register, the transcript shows a spouse without a first name but the actual image does look like Fanny

Yes it does. They are in Weston Super Mare.

Don't worry about that.

I don't understand why doing a '39 search didn't work and yet a full FindMyPast one did and even gave full access to the '39 entry.
