Yes, I use that site at the Library but didn't think it was free online.

So the other marriage is to Ralph Henry Harwood, and all those Harwood-Wllson births in Blackburn on the GRO are to these two marriages. The 1881 should help sort these out?

The other one is Harwood / Hall BUT Emma was only my Grandmother's Grandmother. though she didn't remember Emma she knew Emma's children her Aunties / Uncles.

It was just which Parent was Emma's that was my problem BUT not saying knowing it's James will make it any easier  ::) especially since I need to search for a marriage. In anywhere in Lancashire Lancaster / Preston / Manchester / Blackburn are my first choices  ;D then find her 'Birth'.
