Hi Lynda is this for your Wiseness family? I hope it will give you some idea of husband's origins and not just an address where he was staying :-) Heather

Thanks once again for your replies. Yes you're right Heather, I have already ordered the marriage cert and it is for my Wiseness mystery. I am determined as ever to get to the bottom of this - think my mum will be delighted if I can as the Wiseness is on her father's side of the family, the youngest being her grandmother. Fingers crossed. I will post on here and let you know when it arrives Heather :) Lyn x
