gallery/image_page.php?album_id=169&image_id=6886

The inscription is very hard to read but I've found the following so far.....

Marriage 1900
WILLETTS Joseph CRUMPTON Eliza Stourbridge Register Office

Is this Eliza.........

Death Jun 1912
Willetts Eliza 37 Stourbridge 6c 106

I don't think I can add any more without the marriage certificate :roll: :roll:
