    Question Lawrence or Laurence marriage circa 1879

    Thomas Henry Lawrence / Laurence marriage to Eliza Wiltshire married possibly in Winchcome c 1879 and parents of Julia born c 1883/4 in Winchcombe.
    I would be pleased to have details of this couples fathers if at all possible in order to untangle at least three sets of likely parents for Thomas Henry, or indeed any relevant info on Julia.

    Any information much appreciated.

    Regards to all here and best wishes

    The GRO reference for the marriage can be found on FreeBMD

    Jun 1879 Winchcomb vol 6a p677.

    You can order the Certificate for £9-75 from www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/ and it will give you, hopefully, the names and occupations of the fathers.

    They married May 3 1879 in the parish church of Winchcombe. Thomas's name is recorded as LAWRENCE, but he signed as LAURANCE. One of the witnesses was Anne Laurance, but her signature looks like LAWRANCE!

    He was a painter aged 21 living in Prestbury and his father George was a groom. Eliza's father was a labourer called Robert, and she was living in Winchcombe.
