Did you click on the number at the end? That will give you all those on that page. Of course if you wanted you could buy their kids birth cert for the info.

Since your marr took place in Leeds, which is one of the Rego D's available on Yorks BMDs, in this case, we can also look at the Leeds RO index as well as the GRO index, and we find:

Yorkshire Marriage indexes for the years: 1867

SPENCER John BURLEY Ann St Peter, Leeds Leeds CE46/73/193
