Couldn't see that one but, interestingly, there is this one in 1855 ??

His address looks like 26, North St., and she is from Buxton, Devon ??


London, England, Marriages and Banns, 1754-1921 about Grace White
Name: Grace White
Spouse: William Pearse
Record Type: Banns
Event Date: 1855
Parish: Christ Church, St Marylebone

There is no mention of 'Lillicrap' and it is only the Banns so no fathers or witnesses on there.

Grace in 1841. They were all dressmakers apart from the last 5 who were servants, and 'not born in county' so Warwickshire is a mistake.
