M.E.O.T. = Mile End Old Town

I don't think there is an "H" there.

anc.... has a H in front ,but mile end fits with all the other evidence etc .

I don't know what you're looking at. The scan I'm looking at at the moment on Ancestry doesn't have an "H".

Indexes simply point us to the original documents which is what I was looking at (specifically the Banns Register, Ancestry don't seem to have got round to putting the Marriage Register on line).
