Christine - on a quick inspection of freebmd I see what you mean! Where did you get your name and year of birth? Do you have a location?

Well done Island! How did you do that then?
He is also this name on Freebmd on his marriage to Dorothy by the way, so you have definitely cracked it!
Christine - either the writing on the cert was rubbish or the registrar was having a bad day!!
Aren't the folks on here brilliant?
