Hi

I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me read a marriage certificate that I have received a copy of.

The main reason I sent for a copy was so I could read the maiden name, however, I have been unable to decipher the script and it is also a bit faded in places have been unsuccesful,

I have a copy of the image if there is anyway anyone could possibly help me.

Thanks
Anne-Marie

Hi

Just wanted to let you know.
hi

Success, I have actually found it!!!

Her name was Holbrook.

I knew I had found a site somewhere where you could cross ref on the page of the index but some of my friends who are also doing family research hadn't come accross it.

Anyway, I was looking at an old post on Genes reunited and they mentioned freebmd.org and I remembered thats where it was. I clicked on page 29 and there was the list of names and there was a Mary Ann there was well with a surname of Holbrook.

Many thanks to those who offered to help.
