Thanks you v.much for this. Yes this is Ethel my grandmother, she was married to Norris. I appreciate our advice, and offering help with my query.

On the marriages with Harriet and Alfred, there's the name Clement Arrowsmith...do you know if this is a previous marriage?

Many thanks

Clement Arrowsmith is one half of another couple whose marriage just happens to appear on the same page of the register..................in no way connected
