Could there be a mistake about his name? This marriage reg'n seems relevant............ Ellen Cooper 1894 Oct-Nov-Dec Ashbourne Derbyshire, Staffordshire >>>>>Sarah Johnson 1894 Oct-Nov-Dec Ashbourne Derbyshire, Staffordshire >>>>> Solomon Mellor 1894 Oct-Nov-Dec Ashbourne Derbyshire, Staffordshire Richard Turnock Oliver 1894 Oct-Nov-Dec Ashbourne Derbyshire, Staffordshire Or is it sheer coincidence?
