Hello Daniel, Thank you so much for your offer. My great grandmother lived at 63 Market St in 1854, do you know if the original building is still standing? Is Saint Wereburghs Church still there? I would really appreciate a pic if you are able. Thanks so much. Diane NSW Australia [email protected]

Hi Diane, Could you email me please so I have your address. Market street still exists but i don't know if that specific address does. I'll have to check. I can do St. Werburgh's if you want me to do it still. Its not in the middle of the shops but more on the outskirts. The priest can go to Beaties in less than a minuite if he wants to.

Hi, Dan I have sent my email addy to you. I had added it on my original post but it was censored. Brenda, thank you for the link. The spelling of Werburgh was actually incorrect on the Marriage cert! but theres still not much online. I have seen the pic, and will check the rest of the site out too. Your help is very much appreciated. Diane NSW Australia
