William Nicholas Arnold born 1838 in Bethnal Green to John and Mary Ann Arnold he married 4th qtr. 1857 to either Elizabeth Ironmonger or Jane Deighton. William appears to have vanished from the face of the earth from his marriage date. Has anyone any better eyesight than me and also is there anyway of finding out which of the two girls he married without ordering the cert. please.

No you'll need the M/C also it could be used to help find him in the census

I did wonder about that one Lindy, only thing he wasn't born in Sun Street. Think I'll order the marriage cert. for Jane Deighton first.

Yes Julie, that's the family, it's William I'm trying to follow. His father John I have got the full story on.

Hi Ozzie, I'm not sure if that is Wm. or not and I don't know how I can check it out until I know who his wife is.
