Thank you have done and confirmed the name.

Sometimes my head turns a bit mushy with all the names and dates.

While I am here asking questions I keep seeing that it is more difficult to trace Roman Catholic ancestors but can anyone tell me why one generation would be RC the next Cof E, then one born CofE and worked in an infirmary run by RC nuns which it is possible she became, all same family some were also born one and either married or were buried in another.

if you mean on freebmd, if you click on the page number this should bring up all four people on that page

if only three appear it is either because the other person hasn't yet been transcribed, or has been mistranscribed, or the index is not as legible and so couldn't be fully transcribed

you can then search for Marriages, put in the year and quarter and the district to bring up everyone who married in that quarter and see if you can spot which one they are, looking at the image (click on the pic of specs) will help

if this doesn't work then maybe the district is mistranscribed, in this case search for marriages with yuear, quarter, vol and page and then see if you can find a match

How do you see the other partner of a marriage when there are only three people on the same page.

I know the other partners first name, I think, I know when and where the marriage was, just need to know how to get on to the next page.

Thanks.
