Re: Help Please Horace Perks 1904 Jo adding
I have added what I can, so far...
I don't know how long the marriage cert will take?
Should I archive pending it or leave it for when it does?

Thank you Rocky.
I don't understand why it says James as father for Alice.

No idea? Address correct and a witness is David Smith.
I have connected up.
