Reading marriage 1876
« on: Saturday 08 January 22 09:59 GMT (UK) »
Hello good people

I'm looking for the marriage registered in the Reading registration district in the December quarter of 1876 between Benjamin Browne and Martha Elizabeth Godfrey.

Could anyone help?
Thanks very much in advance

Reading is only the district.

http://www.marriage-locator.co.uk/ might be able to ID the church, but the image is unlikely to be online.

Quite right, Pauline. Thanks for the reply.
Reading is the registration district containing 3 parishes at that time, all in Reading (St. Giles, St. Lawrence and St. Mary)
