I am not to sure that i understand what you mean. I have a copy of the Marriage Entry, this is the information that i am working off.

in 1903 she was 18 years old and there is no occupation listed, strange !! I have seen the Ellen Dodd that you have mentioned. looks like a brick wall at the moment.

Hi Max They were married in the parish of St Gabriels in Birmingham. Harry was born in Aston, Birmingham, Warwickshire. Ellen family is quite ellusive ??

I have Ellen Elizabeth Dodd that Married Harry Baker in 1903, I have the marraige certificate but i am having problems locating her family, I know that her fathers name was Alfred dodd and his occupation in 1903 was a Polisher. Can you assist or come up with any surgestions ??
